About Chase

Chase Carter is an LCSW based in Utah who draws on multiple therapeutic traditions to support people facing behavioral, emotional, relational, and existential challenges.

Background and approach

With four years of clinical experience, he brings a thoughtful blend of contemporary and classical influences, integrating methods from Internal Family Systems, ACT, CBT, and emotion-focused work to tailor care to each person’s needs. He sees individuals and couples and aims to offer alternatives for those who have felt misunderstood by more conventional approaches.

Chase emphasizes collaboration and curiosity in sessions, helping clients explore patterns, stronger and wounded parts of self, and ways to shift toward values-driven living and healthier connections. He works with concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem struggles, and relationship difficulties, along with related areas such as attachment issues, codependency, chronic illness, and caregiver stress.

His style tends to suit people seeking compassionate, flexible care that combines evidence-based techniques with relational depth.

Integrative approaches and online therapy options

Chase draws from Internal Family Systems to help clients notice and relate to different parts of themselves, supporting work with internal conflict, shame, and relational patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify values and build flexible actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can be helpful for depression, anxiety, and behavior change. Client-Centered Therapy provides a foundation of empathy and nonjudgmental listening that supports exploration and emotional healing.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will work with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Sessions often combine relational listening with concrete skills so the plan evolves from what the client needs most at any given time.

Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide practical flexibility. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy schedules, and access support from Utah-based licensed professionals without extra travel time.
