About Carol
Her style is steady and patient. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She listens for what matters most and helps clients find manageable ways to change daily routines and reactions.
Carol blends several approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports values-based choices when emotions feel overwhelming. Attachment-Based work looks at patterns from close relationships and how they show up now.
She has spent many years working with diverse adults, including older clients and those with medical issues. That background informs how she frames problems and suggests coping strategies that fit real life.
People who come to her often want straightforward tools, calmer reactions, and clearer communication. She aims to help clients build routines and skills they can use after sessions end. If you want a practical, respectful approach to handling anger and related issues, Carol offers steady guidance and collaborative planning.

How Carol’s approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It is often useful for anger, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviors to change how someone feels. It can help with anxiety, depression, and managing reactions in the moment. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current trust, communication, and closeness, which can be important when anger shows up in relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client collaborate to pick and adjust methods based on goals, comfort, and what actually helps in daily life. Carol listens to what matters most and combines techniques in ways that fit each person.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, since specific options are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats also work better when a video connection is not ideal or when a quick phone call helps maintain momentum between meetings. Talk with the therapist about which option would fit your routine and goals.
