Carolee Binette

Carolee Binette is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who focuses on practical support for people coping with eating and food-related issues alongside trauma, ADHD, anxiety, and mood concerns. She writes in a direct, down-to-earth way and aims to help clients find who they already are rather than chase someone else. The tone in sessions is straightforward and conversational so difficult topics become easier to talk about.

Carolee brings 14 years of clinical experience in children’s and family mental health programs and community settings. She has helped people dealing with trauma, emotional abuse, anger, parenting stress, and the fallout from major life changes. Her background includes leadership roles and hands-on clinical work with diverse presentations across the lifespan.

In session she uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person. Conversations are warm, interactive, and anchored in real-life problems rather than abstract theory. She avoids one-size-fits-all worksheets and focuses on what actually helps the individual in front of her.

Carolee works with common struggles like attachment wounds, body image concerns, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and workplace stress. She also supports parents facing caregiver stress and those navigating young adult transitions. Her goal is honest collaboration that leads to clearer choices and more manageable days.

For people who feel stuck after trauma or who want better tools for anger, attention, or disordered eating patterns, Carolee aims to create a practical path forward. She encourages taking the next step when the time feels right.

Practical evidence-based approaches for online care

Carolee draws from well-established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people address thinking patterns, emotions, and behavior. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and problematic eating patterns. Humanistic methods emphasize understanding the person’s values and goals, helping clients reconnect with what matters to them and build self-compassion.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Carolee works collaboratively with each person to choose or blend methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan rather than assuming a single method will fit everyone.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss scheduling and format details during the initial match so sessions align with daily routines and practical needs.
