About Chase

Chase Carter is an LCSW practicing in Utah with four years of clinical experience. He meets with individuals and couples facing relationship strains, emotional pain, and life transitions. Chase draws on both Eastern and Western wisdom to shape approachable, grounded care.

Chase often uses mindfulness practices to help people settle their attention and notice what matters most. He also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques to support personal values and present-moment clarity. Sessions are conversational and focused on practical steps people can try between meetings.

People come to Chase for problems like addiction, depression, low self-esteem, and trauma or abuse. He also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, and communication problems. Couples come for help with commitment issues, divorce and separation concerns, and repair after hurts.

In sessions Chase listens for what isn’t working and helps craft small, doable changes. He favors clear language and concrete practices rather than jargon. That makes therapy easier to follow when life feels busy or overwhelming.

He describes his approach as collaborative. Clients set goals and Chase offers tools from several approaches to match those goals. If someone wants a different emphasis, he adjusts the work to fit their needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Chase uses Mindfulness Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as core parts of his work. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and notice patterns that cause distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that match those values even when feelings are difficult.

He also draws on client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on the person in front of him. That approach means listening carefully, reflecting what matters to the client, and shaping the pace and focus together. These approaches suit concerns like relationship strain, depression, addiction, and trauma-related symptoms because they combine practical skills with clear personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Chase will work collaboratively to decide which combination of methods fits a person’s goals and daily life. He adjusts exercises and homework to match what a client prefers and can realistically do between sessions.

Please confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions better match daily routines.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
