About Carly
Carly Anne Lockowitz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing big mood shifts, unstable relationships, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, intrusive thoughts, and feelings of loneliness. Carly routinely includes life purpose among areas she addresses when clients are questioning what comes next.
Carly uses practical skills and steady support rather than abstract theory. She draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaching interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness skills in sessions. She also brings a trauma-informed approach when past harm affects present functioning.
Sessions focus on concrete tools people can use between appointments. Carly emphasizes developing skills to manage intense emotions and improve communication. She helps people notice patterns in relationships and offers straightforward strategies to interrupt those patterns.
Her work aims to be collaborative. Carly builds on existing strengths while helping clients try new ways of coping and relating. Conversations tend to be direct and action-focused, with practice tasks to try between meetings.
People come to Carly for a mix of symptom relief and practical life changes. She assists with stress, anger, grief, identity questions, relationship problems, and issues connected to trauma. For those wondering what matters next, she helps clarify values and next steps without promising a specific outcome.
How DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It supports building a working relationship and shaping goals based on the individual's concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. These skills help with intense emotions, unstable relationships, and impulsive behavior.Carly treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to figure out which techniques fit their goals and preferences. Together they check what is helping and adjust the plan as needed rather than sticking to a single method.
Confirm the session formats Carly currently offers before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions make regular meetings easier to fit into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. Others prefer in-person meetings for longer, skills-based work. The therapist will discuss what works best for scheduling, the pace of skill practice, and how to structure sessions to fit everyday responsibilities.
