I am a Virginia-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has been practicing for 7 years. I earned my Master's from Troy State University in Alabama. I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on resolving functionally impairing issues associated with anxiety, relationships, mood disorders, and trauma.

I utilize common analogies to assist with providing varied perspectives so clients can recognize the depth of their potential.

First session

The journey through life is unpredictable. So, when you feel as if challenges are coming at you from every direction, you should confront them. It is important to take control of your story by determining your path. The first session is the beginning of the therapeutic process. We will discuss the thoughts, feelings, and behavior that negatively impact your day-to-day functioning. Also, preliminary goals will be identified, and expectations discussed.

Strengths

As a provider I believe my greatest strength is that I understand that life happens to everyone; therefore, I can empathize with many of the challenges and struggles people experience at different stages of their lives.

Ideal clients

I enjoy working with people who are interested in making positive life changes. The clients I work with understand their current circumstances do not define who they are and do not dictate their futures.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT in my practice to assist clients in recognizing the connection and impact of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. When implementing CBT techniques clients can make positive changes to their dysfunctional or nonadaptive behaviors.

After the recent tragic loss of a colleague, I felt I needed professional support to help me understand and work through my grief. I chose Mrs. Palmore after reading her profile and reviews, and I am very glad I did. She is warm, compassionate, and truly empathetic. She made me feel comfortable, listened with care, and helped me better understand the emotions I am experiencing this difficult time. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and supportive counselor.

I really like her. She cares about what I'm going through. She likes it when you ask questions.

Carolyn helps me reflect on where the things I’m going through stem from and gives very practical advice. She’s genuine, real, but just a joy too! I definitely feel heard but also feel I have the tools to be better now.
