Morning Light Counseling (Carrie M. Wrigley, LCSW)

Morning Light Counseling, the private practice of Carrie M. Wrigley, LCSW, is located at 9055 South 1300 East, Sandy, Utah. Carrie's thirty-plus years as a counselor have equipped her to serve a wide variety of clients with a large range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, and addiction. She counsels adults, teens, and children, male and female; and offers family counseling designed to increase mutual understanding and unity within the family. Carrie also provides marriage counseling, counseling couples through communication issues, personality conflicts, infidelity and sexual addiction issues, parenting concerns, and other challenges.

Carrie uses a variety of tools to help her clients, including CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy); Skill Building; Positive Psychology, Wellness Coaching; Personality Assessment, communication training, and (if requested by clients) faith-based counseling. She utilizes approaches designed to help clients heal from within, and to instigate positive changes they can carry on long after therapy concludes. She assigns homework and reading assignments designed to expand the healing process beyond the sessions themselves, so clients heal and grow more quickly and effectively. She seeks to empower her clients to gain more positive control over their own lives, moods, thoughts, and daily habits.

Appointments with Carrie can be set by phone or email contact, or directly through her Online Appointment Scheduler at morninglightcounseling.com. This resource allows clients to create, review, reschedule, or cancel their own appointments – day and night, wherever they have internet access. For those unable to attend sessions in person, due to distance, illness, scheduling conflicts, or other factors, she offers remote counseling by phone, Zoom, or Skype.

Carrie also shares information about emotional wellness in classes, presentations, videos, and on her online counseling library, CounselingLibrary.org. In 2019, she published a comprehensive guidebook, detailing the skills and approaches that are most useful in promoting emotional wellness. This book, "Your Happiness Toolkit: 16 Strategies for Overcoming Depression, and Building a Joyful, Fulfilling Life," is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and elsewhere.

Carrie is passionate about equipping her clients with tools, perspectives, and skills that empower them to live happy, productive lives - even in the face of adversity and challenges.
