More about Carolynn

Brene Brown said it best - "Imperfections are not inadequacies, they are reminders that we are all in this together."

I practice a strength-based approach to counseling in a warm, relaxed, comfortable virtual online environment. In our sessions you will be valued, heard and validated through a positive and affirming perspective.

I address a wide range of issues with adolescents, adults and couples, including depression, anxiety, other mental health disorders, trauma, grief, unresolved emotional issues and relationship concerns in both individual and couples' approach to counseling.

I am Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC) and a Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS) in the State of Michigan. I have held credentials in Trauma Counseling with youth and adults. I have extensive education and experience in the field of depression, anxiety, trauma and addiction.

I have continued my career in the mental health field/substance abuse/trauma field for over 25 years. I have experience in both mental health and substance abuse with trauma, depression, anxiety, co-occurring disorders, and human trafficking victims (sex and work trade).

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
