Mrs. Carolyn is an amazing woman. She reminds me so much of my grandmother and cares for me like I’m one of her own. She listens and gives me great advice and walks me through the toughest moments. I would strongly recommend her as your therapist!

Carolyn and I have great talks and she gives me great tips on how to combat miscommunication in my relationships. She is very personable. I can laugh and cry with her, she gives me space to be vulnerable with who and where I am at this point in my life.

Ms. Carolyn has been an amazing counselor. She is a greater listener and has empathy for the situation without any condescension. Carolyn helped me remember the tools for managing certain situations, and gave me new tactics and techniques for moving forward. She was exactly what I needed to work through some recent trauma that brought up old memories that were impacting current relationships. She helped me get past those and stabilize my relationships, as well as helping me find myself again. If I need to return in the future, I'm glad to know she will be available. I definitely recommend her for counseling.

Carolyn has been an extremely huge help in working through my limiting beliefs and past childhood trauma! She is attentive and she listens with love! Never judging and is so very patient, even when I can’t make some meeting times! She’s always so excited to hear the latest news and she truly cares. I’ve been able to build a strong trust and relationship over the last few months with her because she’s so giving and open to building a strong bond! This is my first time using better help and I’m grateful to have Carolyn as my therapist!
