My name is Carolina Dudley and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the State of Michigan and Ohio.I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) licensed mental health therapist with nearly two decades of experience helping individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered. As someone with lived experience of ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder, I understand firsthand the unique joys and challenges that come with being neurodivergent. I also specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression.
My practice is grounded in compassion, authenticity, and faith. I offer a non-judgmental, inclusive space where clients—especially those navigating neurodivergence—can explore their experiences, build resilience, and connect with their strengths. Whether you’re working through anxiety, identity, burnout, or relationship struggles, I will meet you where you are with empathy, clinical expertise, and a deep respect for your journey.
You don’t have to do this alone. Healing is possible, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

For the first time I feel like someone is genuinely in my corner. Genuinely validating my concerns, experiences and even my feelings inside. She also balances that with good firm adjustments when needed in my thinking without making me feel like a failure. She's been extremely helpful and getting my life in balance in a healthy way. Even tough conversations feel collaborative and productive.

While it is early on, I believe Carolina was an attentive listener and let me say anything I needed to while also helping guide me when I didn't know what to say or bring up, which is very helpful as I have a hard time knowing what to say. This is my first time trying therapy and so far it seems like a good fit.

I really do enjoy taking with Carolina she seams fun and intuitive about our sessions ,offering experiences and expertise to help solve or mitigate some of my issues or concerns. Along with some worksheets I can refrance about additional calming exercises and approaches to keep my mind at ease. I would like it if the sessions were a bit closer together though... It would help to keep previous sessions fresh in ones mind if they were. But I do understand that she has more than likely numerious clients.

Carolina cares about me and all the challenges and events in my life. She is patient with me as I continue to learn and grow and make decisions. No matter what I’m going through, she wants to know and help me through life.

Carolina has helped me more than I can express in words. Being a professional myself my biggest fear was having someone who would try so many textbook responses to me and I wouldn’t feel sincerity in out conversations. I feel like an equal. I know our goal (as mental health professionals) is to just provide resources and a ground work to help our clients. I feel heard, I feel I can put my thoughts in the correct patterns and I feel supported. I need that the most.

Carolina is a patient listener. She doesn't just jump in with her suggestions or solutions, she waits for me to talk it through and actively listens to me. I also appreciate her kind demeanor and Christian perspective. I would highly recommend her to someone who wants to have a judgment-free, healing atmosphere. Thank you, Carolina, I've gained some life skills because of you!
