Hi my name is Carolina. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor of three years and have well over 15 years working with individuals who have a severe chronic mental illness and occurring disorders. I am experienced in working with individuals that have depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, adjustment, parenting and self esteem challenges.
I use a Holistic Approach, bringing awareness to the mind, body and soul. This gives us an understanding of how one area in a persons life has an affect on another area. I use Solution Focused Brief Therapy to encourage focus on the present and to promote a vision of the future you deserve and want. With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy I help reveal the relationship between beliefs, thoughts, feelings and how these lead to ones behaviors/ reactions to specific situations.
I am non judgmental, encouraging, honest and challenging. I believe we are resilient and are here to move forward towards a fulfilling life. With the right tools we can move through challenges with more ease and promote growth. I commend you, you have taken a courageous step in your pursuit of change, happiness, and meaning. I look forward to working with you!

Carolina has been extremely helpful during a time of my life that has been particularly challenging. She has helped me work through various issues from several angles. She has been non-judgmental even as I have discussed difficult and painful topics and she has given me helpful tools in addressing anxiety that has been both a cause and effect of the challenges I have faced this year.

Carolina has been quick to respond, understanding, and knowledgeable with specific areas that I need help with. She has given my many ways to cope with the many things she has identified about me. I’m so happy I started this journey and that she’s been there with me through it all.
