More about Carolyn
- 25 years' experience
- Female
- Psychologist
As a licensed therapist in California with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and self-esteem. I have a deep commitment to supporting women through various life transitions, including pregnancy, postpartum experiences, workplace dynamics, and midlife transformations.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate and holistic, focusing on helping individuals reconnect with their sense of self-worth, improve communication patterns, and address feelings of isolation or disconnection. I understand that healing is a deeply personal journey, and I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences with attachment, body image, relationship challenges, and personal growth.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I offer nuanced support for individuals experiencing posttraumatic stress, family dynamics, fertility challenges, and the emotional complexities of divorce and separation. My goal is to empower clients to develop resilience, cultivate self-love, and rediscover their inner strength during difficult life transitions.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
