About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with supervising privileges, and a licensed mental health provider with many areas of professional experience and personal experiences. I have extensive knowledge in working with minority populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Mrs. Carolyn is an amazing woman. She reminds me so much of my grandmother and cares for me like I’m one of her own. She listens and gives me great advice and walks me through the toughest moments. I would strongly recommend her as your therapist!

Carolyn and I have great talks and she gives me great tips on how to combat miscommunication in my relationships. She is very personable. I can laugh and cry with her, she gives me space to be vulnerable with who and where I am at this point in my life.
