Hi - I am Carol Messmore, a brief solution-focused marriage and family therapist with over 20 years of experience with individuals, couples and families. Are you feeling overwhelmed, struggling with relationship problems, or experiencing anxiety or self-regulation issues? I work with clients using a positive focus, it is not about blame or fault - it is about getting to where you want to be -- feeling better about yourself and those around you. Whether you are dealing with stress, depression or anxiety, we can work together to make a difference in your life. Seeking therapy is difficult, reaching out to make an appointment is the hardest step. Our sessions together will be a safe, judgment-free space where you can challenge yourself to make the changes you want. Let's work together to make that happen.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session we will work on defining what has to be different for us to no longer meet.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I work diligently to be aware of my unconscious bias and what I am bringing into the therapy room as the therapist. Because of this work, my strength is creating a therapeutic environment that is non-judgmental for clients. In a safe environment, we can challenge any thoughts or behaviors that may get in the way of change.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I have experience with families of young children (birth -6) and work with individuals, couples, and families. I also have experience with women experiencing post-partum depression and the challenges of being a new mom.
