About Carol

Carol Weihe uses relationship-focused methods to guide people toward clearer connection and healthier patterns. She blends practical tools with warm, direct support so people can handle stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and big life transitions.

Background and approach

Carol holds a master-level Kansas LCMFT license. She brings 24 years working in settings that include independent practice, community mental health, managed care, and the Department of Veteran's Affairs.

That background means she has experience with complex situations and long-term concerns. Her approach is compassionate and straightforward.

She listens closely, helps people name what matters, and teaches concrete skills to change how they respond to conflict and stress. Sessions often focus on improving communication, addressing family-of-origin patterns, and reducing avoidance behaviors.

Carol uses several therapy styles to match the needs of each person. She draws from the Gottman Method to look at interaction patterns, from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and goals, and from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to reshape unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Emotion-focused ideas are also used when healing from trauma and loss. She works with issues like divorce and separation, domestic violence, codependency, hospice and end-of-life concerns, cancer-related distress, and aging or geriatric matters.

Carol also helps with control issues, dissociation, guilt and shame, and problems around commitment and communication. People who choose Carol can expect supportive challenge, mindfulness practices, and skills-based work aimed at lasting change.

She welcomes sessions in English and offers remote formats for flexibility.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Carol uses the Gottman Method to look at how people interact and to teach clearer communication and conflict habits that reduce repeated hurt. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters, accept difficult feelings, and take committed action toward valued goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to change mood and stress.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This collaborative process means methods are blended to match real life needs rather than imposed in a fixed way.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face work for communication practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options increase flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or health concerns.
