Introduction

Hey, I’m Caroline. You may look successful on the outside, but inside your mind rarely slows down. You deserve support that helps you find relief from distressing symptoms, restore balance, and reconnect with a life that feels meaningful and aligned with who you are. You’ll be met here with warmth, respect, and affirmation. This is an LGBTQIA+ affirming space where all identities are welcome and valued. Your experiences, background, and story matter. With experience across hospital settings, hospice care, veterans’ services, child protective services, school-based therapy, and private practice, I understand how personal struggles are often shaped by larger systems and life stressors. Together, we can untangle what’s weighing on you and identify practical ways forward. Our work will be tailored to you. Drawing from person-centered, strength-based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll build tools to manage anxiety, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and help you move toward what truly matters in your life. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you - it’s about strengthening your capacity to cope, heal, and grow. If you’re ready to take that next step, support is here.
