Carmen Walker, MA, LCMHC
Burlington, Vermont

I’ve been working in the mental health field for over 20 years in Burlington, VT. As a licensed psychotherapist, I meet with adults, couples and families. Additionally, I offer

Clinical Supervision and Ayurvedic consultations. I currently meet with clients in person and on-line.

​

As an inherently curious and non-judgmental person, I am passionate about helping people to understand themselves and their relationships. I have experience working with

trauma, improving communication, developing coping skills and inner resourcing, establishing healthy boundaries, and helping to get unstuck.

​

In my clinical work, I take an integrative therapeutic approach, by pulling from a family systems approach, a developmental, and strength-based framework. I utilize components

of cognitive-behavioral therapy, parts-work, relational and attachment theory. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR.

​

With a background in yoga and meditation, I am passionate about the value of mindfulness in my daily life, and have experience facilitating groups using mindfulness-

based cognitive therapy. I also enjoy bringing in my knowledge of the Enneagram, when appropriate. The specific treatment methods I use and the duration of psychotherapy will depend on your history, current circumstances, and our mutually-established goals for therapy.

​

Regardless of the treatment methods used, the focus will be on empowering you to make the changes you wish to make in your life.  I am forever inspired by helping people to

find a greater sense of balance and ease amongst their whole selves-the body, mind and spirit.

​

Let’s face it; Life can be up, down, and all around. We can get stuck in habitual patterns that aren’t serving us and this can be uncomfortable and painful. I believe our emotions

can be messengers for us, providing the opportunity to examine what is and isn’t working.

 

Together, let's create the space you need to listen in and trust yourself.
