About Ohan

Ohan Carter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York. She helps people handle parenting stress, relationship strain, grief, and workplace challenges. Her approach centers on listening closely and building practical strategies that fit daily life.

With three years as an LCSW, she draws on clinical approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered work to guide conversations. Sessions focus on what feels most useful to each person, whether that means shifting thoughts, improving communication, or setting realistic goals.

Clients can expect a calm, supportive space to talk through anger, low self-esteem, caregiving strain, or identity questions related to LGBT matters. She also addresses trauma and abuse, adoption and foster care concerns, and compassion fatigue among caregivers.

Her sessions often include coaching-style elements when people want help with career direction, life purpose, or workplace issues. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used to clarify next steps and build momentum toward change.

Ohan aims to help people find inner strengths and new ways to cope. She invites practical plans that can be tried between sessions and adjusted over time. If someone is unsure whether this approach fits, she asks a few questions first to match goals and expectations before scheduling.

How these approaches shape online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps them name what matters most, which suits concerns like parenting stress, identity questions, and grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. Short exercises and clear steps help people test ideas and try different responses, which can be useful for anger, low self-esteem, and workplace issues.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change and build commitment to small goals. It works well when someone is feeling stuck about career decisions, caregiving choices, or life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust the plan over time.

Confirm the available online session options before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins between commitments, and remove travel time. Those practical benefits help people keep momentum while balancing caregiving, work, and family demands.
