About Carey
Carey Deeters is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of experience in human services. He practices in Pennsylvania and has worked across settings that include county services, inpatient care, hospice, community agencies, and clinical programs. Carey helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, relationship strain, and parenting pressures.
He has experience with a wide range of concerns and diagnoses, and has worked with children and youth, adults, and older adults in clinical and community settings. Carey’s background includes supporting people through grief and loss, substance use disorders, abuse, and life transitions. He also notes experience with conditions such as ADHD, mood disorders, and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder.
Carey favors a cognitive behavioral approach but adapts methods to each person’s situation. He uses techniques from narrative therapy and solution-focused work to help people reframe stories and set practical goals. Motivational interviewing informs how he supports change, and somatic techniques are used when bodily awareness is helpful.
In sessions he aims for clear, straightforward conversations about patterns, choices, and next steps. Practical tools, short-term goals, and homework assignments may appear alongside longer-term reflection. He describes the work as a cooperative effort to reduce distress and increase day-to-day functioning.
Carey is based in Pennsylvania and conducts work in English. He does not take international clients. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site.
How Carey blends practical approaches for online work
Carey uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors; this is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. He also draws on motivational interviewing to support readiness for change, helping people find their own reasons to try something different. Narrative therapy is used to examine and reframe the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships, which can be helpful for identity shifts in blended households.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Carey treats the selection of methods as a collaborative process. He will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels practical and effective for the person seeking help.
