LMFT, 11 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hello and welcome. First of all, I would like to congratulate you on your courage to take the first step in selecting a therapist. The thought of sharing intimate thoughts, struggle, and personal experiences can be overwhelming and frightening. I hope to help you feel confident that you have come to the right place to express your needs and work on feeling better. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT) in California. I have over 11 years experience in providing services to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, trauma, and other challenges. I have had the pleasure of working in various settings. For almost seven years, I worked at a community mental health agency treating children, adolescents, adults, and families with a variety of needs especially those who have experienced trauma. I have found that each individual comes with their unique story and background. I started seeing clients out of my area when the pandemic started and found I could help more clients using the telehealth platforms. This inspired me to continue to reach those clients who desire telehealth for various reasons. Life can be busy with schedules and finding time for therapy is not always easy. Telehealth can make therapy a little easier.
I hope to find out about your needs, your story, and your goals during our first session. In addition, my hope is that you gain optimism that working together to accomplish your treatment goals is tangible. You know you best and can provide the best snapshot of your life. I want you to feel comfortable as we build the therapeutic relationship and connection to work on what's important to you.
My strengths are meeting my clients where they are and not assuming I know their story. My background working with CBT interventions along with Trauma Focused CBT has developed my strengths in understanding reactions to traumas vary in individuals. Additionally, I have learned depression, anxiety, grief, and other situations are not a one size fits all.
Although I have experience working with various populations, I am currently working with adolescents and adults.

Caroline has been a wonderful therapist for me for over a year. She has helped me through a life-changing breakup and through other massive life decisions, such as buying a house for the first time. She helped me develop important coping and mindfulness skills to help with my anxiety and depression that I will value and use for the rest of my life. I owe huge thanks to Caroline for all of the heartfelt care and advice she provided me in every session, and for helping me become more independent.

Caroline helps me give myself the time and space I need by providing tools that align with my true self. She is knowledgeable about a variety of issues and creates a judgment-free environment, which gives me a strong sense of self and security. Most importantly, I feel empowered when I talk to her. She enables me to grow within myself and to address the low self-esteem I have carried so deeply for so long. Low self-esteem, low self-confidence, and low self-worth are my personal struggles, and I want to confront them head-on so that I can overcome these behaviors that have been with me my entire life and are no longer serving me.
Currently, my sessions consists of Individual sessions where I integrate various evidence base models which include concepts from CBT, TF-CBT, Solution Focused, Strength Based, Seeking Safety and Managing Adaptive Practices to have a variety of interventions to meet my client's needs.
