Hi and welcome! My name is Carol.
Carol's clients are creative and wise; which is every person. Her clients are ready to use their natural creativity to question the "what is" and want to implement what they desire in their life. Carol's clients want to feel confident in creating their life. When working with Carol, you will have an art transformative experience that also satisfies clinical counseling skills. You will create art during your session, while learning skills for self soothing, empowerment, and focusing on what calls to you. Carol facilitates the art making, holds the space, and verbally processes with you throughout the session.
Carol earned a B.A. in Art and Painting in Dallas, and an M.A. in Art Therapy and Counseling in Santa Fe, and offers over 10 years of experience facilitating art therapy. Carol wants potential clients to know there are no art skills required, and there is no judgment or interpretation of your art. You can feel safe and confident in your art making!
Carol feels excited to meet with you and help you use art therapy to gain awareness and insight into your questions. You are already headed in the right direction, and are already asking the right questions, let's meet and work together!

Carol is a godsend. She's so kind, warm, and nonjudgmental. She has empowered me to think about things in new ways and feel more in control. I would work with her forever if I could!

A perfect match.

Carol has been a great help in processing my current and past issues. She is able to understand me (often better than I am) and is able to see the bigger picture, but also understands things that are said between the lines. She is very encouraging yet professional, and uses creative ways to help us understand more about ourselves and our troubles. I would highly recommend Carol to anyone who is in a search for a good online therapist.
