About Darryl

LCSW in North Carolina with eight years of clinical practice, Dr. Darryl Mccarroll focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and relationship concerns using client-centered work and several evidence-informed methods. He brings experience from clinical settings and military service to support people dealing with grief, depression, intimacy issues, anger, and self-esteem problems.

He uses Client-Centered Therapy to center the person's goals and experience, and integrates cognitive-behavioral and dialectical tools to address unhelpful thinking and emotional regulation. His work also includes emotionally-focused approaches and EMDR for processing traumatic memories when appropriate. Sessions are described in straightforward terms and aim to address present difficulties and practical coping skills.

Dr. Mccarroll has a background that includes a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations, a Master of Management, a Master of Social Work, and a Doctor of Social Work. He previously served in the U.S. Army, progressing from enlisted ranks to Infantry Captain. He has worked in nonprofits, hospitals, group homes, orphanages, and schools, and has experience with substance-related problems and trauma-related care.

His additional focus areas include first responder and veteran issues, multicultural concerns, personality challenges, process addictions, sexual assault and abuse, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, life-purpose questions, and communication problems.

How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's goals and perspective. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, clarifies what matters most, and shapes sessions around those priorities. This approach helps when someone needs guidance and space to decide on next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior. It involves identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing new skills to change reactions to stress, anxiety, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds clear skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, intense emotions, and relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and recommend using one method or a blend. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit care into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a work break, or a session that avoids travel time. Discuss practical needs during the match questionnaire and the initial appointment to determine how best to structure ongoing sessions.
