About Carole
She works with a broad range of concerns including coping with life changes, caregiver stress, communication and control issues, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and questions about life purpose. Her practice also addresses mood concerns, pregnancy and childbirth related adjustments, sexuality, social anxiety and phobia, women’s issues, and workplace difficulties. Carole draws on clinical approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and solution-focused techniques to tailor support to each person’s needs.
Carole emphasizes that each person is the expert on their own story and brings strengths that can be mobilized in the therapeutic process. She acknowledges the courage it takes to begin therapy and aims to create a collaborative space where clients and therapist work together to identify goals and practical strategies for change.
Approaches That Guide Online Sessions and Practical Benefits
Carole integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping clients explore their own goals - it is useful for building self-esteem, strengthening motivation, and improving relationships. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, mood concerns, and stress.
She also draws on elements of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills when impulsivity, intense emotions, or relationship strain are present. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Carole collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan over time.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people juggling work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel, letting clients focus on progress in ways that fit their schedules and daily life.
