About Consuelo
Consuelo Gardner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina. She has five years of clinical experience supporting people who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and parenting stress. Her work emphasizes a warm, inviting approach that centers the person's goals and strengths.
She uses client-centered listening to build a partnership with each person. That means she asks questions, listens closely, and helps people decide what matters most to them.
Background and approach
Motivational interviewing techniques are part of her style when someone needs help finding motivation to make a change. Consuelo also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which connects thoughts and behaviors. She helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical coping strategies.
Solution-focused ideas guide brief goal-setting so sessions can focus on concrete next steps when needed. She has experience supporting people with postpartum depression and anxiety and works with parents who feel overwhelmed by caregiving demands. Other common concerns she addresses include social anxiety and phobia, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Consuelo aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant, offering straightforward tools and steady support as people work toward their goals.

Online support
Approaches and what online therapy looks like
Consuelo often combines client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's agenda to build trust and clarify goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts influence behavior and teaches concrete coping skills and experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people see facial cues and work through exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat or text messaging can fit brief check-ins, quick coping reminders, or times when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep continuity of care across locations.
