Her background includes crisis intervention and substance abuse work, plus experience supporting people across the lifespan from pediatric to geriatric concerns. She has also supported military families as a military spouse and has worked with intensive family interventions in clinical settings.

Approaches that guide online therapy choices

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful actions. It helps when worry or low mood gets in the way of living the life someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and problem-focused goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Carol will help clients weigh options, try different methods, and adjust techniques based on goals and preferences. The decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use practices learned in sessions in real time between appointments. If you have questions about how sessions are scheduled or what a session will feel like, mention those when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements can match daily routines and goals.
