Carol offers both support and empathy while keeping me honest. I love our conversations. I mull over what we've discussed in between sessions. I can see how taking her advice has made a difference in how I approach my relationships in a very real way.

Carol is wonderful. She was there for me when literally no one else was. She checks in on me and remembers everything we’ve ever talked about. Even little details, there’s no having to remind her of what we last talked about. She listens to me, assigns enriching homework and offers helpful advice. I’ll probably go to her forever.

Carol creates environment that can make one feel that they are not even in a session.

Carol is an incredible therapist. She takes the time to learn about her patients at a personal level. Responds quickly to messages in times of need. She is also a great listener. As someone who used to dread therapy, I look forward to therapy each week now thanks to Carol.
