INDIVIDUAL THERAPY WITH CARRIE HAYNES, LPC
Welcome to The Vessel
One-on-one sessions and personalized, science-backed therapies to break past barriers and realign with your true self.
Find Clarity
Understand and release the patterns that no longer serve you.
Reclaim Connection
Deepen your relationships with yourself and others.
Foster Growth

A PLACE TO HOLD SPACE
Expert guidance and compassionate support to return to yourself
A vessel holds what is sacred—not in its form but in the space it creates. Like the space within a clay pot that makes it useful, therapy offers a container where your emotions, stories, and truths can be held, explored, and transformed. It is within this space that healing and growth become possible.
Through compassionate, evidence-based approaches, we’ll create a container for your healing work, where all parts of you are welcome. Together, we’ll heal old wounds, uncover new possibilities, and empower you to live a life aligned with your deepest values and aspirations.

Meet Your Therapist
Carrie Haynes, LPC
With over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside many individuals on their healing journeys.
My clients often describe my approach as warm, balanced, and empowering. For me, the therapeutic relationship is everything—it’s where trust grows, safety is nurtured, and real transformation begins.

Support Tailored to Your Unique Journey
Sometimes, healing happens best in the quiet, focused space of one-on-one therapy. Other times, the strength of a community offers the greatest medicine. And often, we need a bit of both. I’ll meet you where you are and help you discover what feels most supportive at this moment in your life.
Care for Therapists and Healers
As someone who has spent years training, mentoring, and supporting therapists, I know firsthand the unique challenges that healers face. If you’re a therapist, this is a space where you can finally exhale—a place to feel seen, held, and understood as you care for yourself.
A Safe and Inclusive Space for All
I am committed to creating a space that is welcoming and affirming for everyone. As an LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC ally, I meet each client with respect and care, honoring your unique story and identity.

“Carrie has a beautiful, strong and graceful presence when she facilitates women’s circle-thereby, creating a safe space and sacred container for women to connect, be vulnerable, and heal together. I can’t recommend this retreat highly enough.”
SHANNON WALISER, MSW, MPA, LICSW
“This was my second year in the Circle Facilitators Training. I left with my heart overflowing with love and joy, deep connections to women who I only gather with once a year and some I met for the first time this year. Carrie’s gift of facilitating a Circle is like no other. If you have the chance to attend Circle with Carrie and are looking for an embodied, deeply connecting experience, then gift yourself time in a Circle with Carrie.”
