My name is Alfred Renard Carter and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My clinical experience and specializations are focused on Depression, Anxiety, Stress Management. I take a strength-based approach to empower you to overcome the psychological and emotional distress you're experiencing. I believe in allowing your (client) clinical needs to determine the theoretical approach and interventions most suitable for your treatment. While my education and professional experiences provide me the competence to provide effective treatment, I don't profess to be an expert on you. You're the expert on your life journey. My role as your therapist is to walk with you through your past as well as present challenges to alleviate the psychological symptoms and barriers preventing you from overcoming its impact on your well-being. I'm honored and privileged to walk with you on your journey.

I'm eclectic in my theoretical approach, although I lean towards Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused and Humanistic Existential theories.

One of my strengths are actively and reflectively listening to the client communicate the challenges their experiencing. I have found that seeing life through the eyes of the client has enabled me understand empathetically what they're experiencing and thus being able to work collaboratively to find insights that allow for a new perspective and understanding that leads to healing and growth.

Renard is brilliant!I have left every session feeling empowered. He's a great listener and offers such valuable insights. I'm beyond grateful that I've found him -- truly! I'm learning so much about myself and how to work through feelings, emotions, and life in general. If you're looking for a therapist who is full of compassion and knows his stuff...look no further.

My appointment with Renard Carter went very well. I appreciated how he is able to listen well and make relevant suggestions. can't assess completely in first sessions, but I think this will be a good match.
