Cara Damier

Cara Damier is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes. Cara aims to help people move from surviving to thriving by building steady, lasting change.

Cara creates a grounded space where clients can name what feels wrong and trace it back to its roots. She emphasizes feeling calm and steady while working through difficult memories or patterns. Sessions aim to leave people feeling more resilient and confident in facing daily challenges.

Her background includes a master’s degree in counselor education and experience running anxiety groups. Cara draws on several counseling methods to match each person’s needs, rather than using a single fixed method. She also offers an option to integrate psychological approaches with Christian theology when that is requested.

In practical terms, Cara works with common life concerns such as sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and caregiving burdens. She also addresses issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, and adjustment after illness or disasters. Her style is collaborative and steady, aimed at practical change.

People who choose Cara can expect a plainspoken, supportive therapist who helps them learn tools and practice new ways of coping. The focus is on small, manageable steps that build into longer-term recovery and growth.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Cara frequently draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them, notice painful thoughts without being ruled by them, and take small, values-based steps toward a life they want. CBT focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, sleep issues, and mood shifts.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions. That work can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems by building awareness of how people connect and respond to one another.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made and new goals emerge.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Many people find that practical skill-building, exposure exercises, and values-based planning adapt well to remote sessions with a licensed professional.
