Carissa Hart, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
-
Carissa Hart, a licensed LCSW, creates a safe and supportive space where children and families can heal, grow, and thrive. With expertise in play therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Carissa tailors her approach to meet her clients where they are.
She provides Play Therapy, which allows children to express emotions, work through challenges, and develop coping skills—using toys, drawing, puppets, and interactive activities rather than traditional talk therapy.
Carissa also provides Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a powerful tool for reshaping negative thoughts and behaviors, helping clients develop a growth mindset and navigate life's challenges with confidence.
Beyond her professional expertise, Carissa’s warm, energetic, and charismatic approach makes her a natural at building trust with clients of all ages. Whether she’s guiding a child through emotions or helping a family strengthen their bond, she’s passionate about making real, lasting change.
When she’s not in session, Carissa loves embracing life as a new mom, baking, playing sports, and creating meaningful moments with loved ones.
