Carina Oltmann, LCSW
About me
Seeking therapy can be the gateway to feeling happier, more connected with yourself and with others. I bring ten years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker to support. listen, and guide you towards improved well-being. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, living with chronic and serious illness, coping with grief and loss, & depression.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where experiences can be shared without fear of judgment. I draw upon cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and meditation, trauma-informed cognitive therapy, and Meaning Making therapy.
It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. It would be my privilege to support & empower you in that journey.

Carina is very helpful. She listens, gives advice, offers possible helpful solutions and things to think about moving forward.

Carina is great and very helpful in therapy. I didn’t expect a therapist on betterhelp to be very good based on online rumors but I think I found a great one!
