Meet Carol

We are naturally wired to heal, grow and evolve within relationships. Sometimes the hardest relationship to develop or repair is the one we have with ourselves.

In the 30+ years in the helping field, I’ve worked with all ages, and many different populations, which provides me with a unique perspective that helps me understand how people change, develop and grow. I believe most people do the best they can with what they’ve got at any given time. 

The working relationship is the most important factor in successful treatment, no matter what the treatment approach, so establishing a rapport is always first and foremost.  I work best with people who understand that although healing is a natural process, it also takes intention, commitment and can be challenging.

Whether we are working together in psychotherapy, consultation (such as clinical consultation or parent/child consultation), or the Safe and Sound Protocol, I like to work collaboratively with people.  We are the experts on our lives, what we’ve tried, what works/ doesn’t work.
