Hello. I am a licensed professional counselor who has worked in Georgia for 25+ years. My experience includes a Girl’s Group Home, several psychiatric facilities, Nursing Homes and private practice. My clientele ranges from adolescents to Senior Citizens. I have worked extensively with psychiatrists to asses clients in order to provide care. It is very satisfying to see change from devastation to hope.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In my first session, I want to know what was the deciding factor that brought you to counseling, your family history, and your goals and expectations of counseling. I want to get to know who you are and your motivation and commitment to being in counseling. I will also answer any questions or concerns about my experience and expertise in the counseling field.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have years of clinical and personal experience that is valuable in helping you in your journey. I have many support contacts that I have developed over the years that can be invaluable.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I would like to serve clients who are in transition-from adolescence to young adults, from college to the workforce, from the workforce to retirement, or from marriage to divorce or being widowed. I have done many grief sessions-grief from death, divorce or loss due to illness. Most of my clients range from 18-58-clients who are experiencing some form of transition in life.

Carolyn's strengths are solution oriented and direct which are qualities that I feel are helpful in my counseling experience. She listens to my concerns and assists me in finding solutions that help my life be more productive and calmer. Being direct is helpful because she gets straight to the point so that I realize changes I need to make or accept situations that are out of my control. With either of these situations she provides helpful suggestions on how to manage them.
