About Jeralyn
Dr. Jeralyn Carter is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Hawaii with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addictions, and anger among other issues. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
She focuses on practical steps people can use when anger or frustration shows up. That might look like naming the triggers, trying small behavioral changes, and practicing breathing and mindfulness exercises between sessions. She uses structured tools when helpful, and also makes space for deeper reflection about patterns that keep repeating.
Her background blends several approaches. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions and Jungian ideas for exploring personal meaning. Client-Centered principles guide how she listens and responds in sessions.
Dr. Carter describes working collaboratively to set realistic goals and track progress over time. She frames change as a series of small, measurable steps rather than sudden fixes. Practical strategies are paired with occasional deeper work when people want to look at long-standing patterns.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small actions that match what matters. It helps people reduce avoidance and handle anger that comes from stuck thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for workplace frustration, rumination, and habit changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that help during intense moments and recurring anger cycles.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods fit the person’s goals and lifestyle. That collaboration shapes session focus, homework, and skills practice between visits.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day, use video for exercises that involve modeling skills, or choose shorter audio sessions when bandwidth or a quiet moment matters. The therapist will discuss practical choices so sessions can fit into everyday life and support steady progress.
