I absolutely adore Dr. Caro, she makes me feel seen and heard. She has done nothing but be helpful and kind and understanding. She makes it easier to cope with the things I am going through by giving me multiple points of view to understand what I am going through. Cannot recommend her enough.

Dr. Caro is extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, and I love how she listens, understands how you work, and then works with you to give you ideas. I love information, so Dr. Caro always gives names of books to read or topics to research. She has helped me survive this last year!!! I owe my sanity to her, she is a God send!
