Most people don’t need a diagnosis. They need someone to actually listen. And I’m here for it all. I’m here to help you figure it out by talking through the part you’ve been trying to carry alone. This is where you say the things you’ve never said out loud. You need to be understood. This is where you stop pretending it didn’t affect you. If you’re looking for someone who will just quietly nod as you pour out your heart and soul, I’m not the right therapist for you. I ask questions. I’m curious. I’m a therapist who helps people make sense of their inner world - especially during seasons of heartbreak, confusion, or change. My clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed or lost.

I aim to provide warmth, practicality, insight, and encouragement which is blended, at times, with a bit of humor. My style is interactive, thoughtful, and deeply collaborative. You can expect sessions to be supportive and also gently challenging – the kind which will help you grow, and not just endlessly vent (although you are welcome to unburden yourself as needed). I believe that in our darkest moments, we need someone to walk with us. There’s nothing more meaningful to me than helping people find the light they thought they’d lost. What happened to you is not the ending of your story. It is the doorway to something deeper. I won’t pretend to have all the answers. I wish I could wave a magic wand and solve it all! But I promise I will bring curiosity, steadiness, and care every time you show up. To learn more, please visit my website: www.careycenter.com
