About Precious

Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana with 19 years of experience as a psychotherapist and supervisor. She focuses on supporting people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, stress, relationship problems, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes. She aims to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk openly and be heard.

Precious draws mainly from cognitive behavioral approaches while also using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing when those methods fit a person’s needs. She works collaboratively with each person to build a plan that fits their goals and situation. Sessions tend to include listening, practical skill-building, and clear steps to try between meetings.

Her background includes many years supervising other clinicians and providing direct clinical care across a range of concerns. That experience informs a practical, down-to-earth style that focuses on what helps in daily life. She offers encouragement along with education about skills and strategies clients can use right away.

People who prefer a respectful, energetic approach may find this style helpful. The therapist emphasizes partnership, helping people identify manageable next steps, and supporting longer-term changes one goal at a time.

If you are considering therapy, Precious encourages you to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session to see how the approach fits your needs.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps aligned with those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying specific behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to process traumatic memories through structured protocols that aim to reduce the emotional intensity tied to those memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning means techniques may be tried, reviewed, and adjusted based on what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It can also let a client use sessions without being on camera if that feels better, or choose a longer in-depth appointment when more time is helpful.
