Meet our Therapist - Braden Cary, MS (Mgr.)
My Path into Meaning
My journey began in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where I was born and raised. I earned a master’s in clinical counselling while in the US, later recognized by the University of Gdańsk, where I now live. I started my career helping families at a local clinic, then spent three years in a hospital supporting adults with substance use, eating disorders, behavioral health issues, and TBI.
I’ve run a private online practice since 2017. What I’ve learned is that real change happens through relationship. My main approach is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), supported by existential therapy, cognitive-behavioural skills, and mindfulness. I believe the connection between us is 99% of the “magic” to getting your life back on track.
I help people who feel stressed, struggle with low self-esteem, or face relational distress restore their determination and authenticity. Together, we learn to thrive alongside emotions—not fight them—using self-compassion, honesty, humor, warmth, and respect. I've been through my fair share of struggles too grief/loss, job loss, caring for loved ones with illness, and new ones come at me each day. All of these events allow me to better sit, listen, and understand you
Understanding My Therapeutic Approach
Acceptance & Commitment
Through ACT, we identify your core values and develop the courage to take committed actions that align with your most authentic self.
Person-Centered Empathy
We cultivate a non-judgmental space where you lead the process. This nurturing environment allows for genuine self-discovery and growth.
Existential Therapy
Existential therapy invites you to explore life’s stressors not as problems to be solved, but as realities to be faced with resilience and honesty.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do online sessions work?
Sessions are conducted via a secure, encrypted video platform. You'll receive a link before our appointment—just find a quiet, private space and click to join. It's therapy from the comfort of your own home.
Is my privacy protected?
Absolutely. Confidentiality is the cornerstone of therapy. I use GDPR-compliant software to ensure our conversations stay private and data is protected. I am a paperless practice and avoid unnecessary evaluations.

Standard sessions are 60 minutes long. Usually, we meet once a week at the start, but we can adjust this based on your specific needs and therapeutic goals.

I offer transparent pricing with digital payment options for ease of use. Please check the 'Book Online' section for current rates.

Who is this therapy for?
My therapy is for all ages navigating stress, self-esteem issues, or relational distress. If you're looking for an authentic, compassionate space to thrive alongside your emotions, you're in the right place.
What is the first session like?
You can choose to do a free, 15-minute video chat where you can ask questions and see if we are a good fit. You can share what you are comfortable with and explain the direction you want your life to go. Of course if you are ready to dive into therapy you may select a full-hour session which will give us time to look deeper and start setting goals.
