About Carolyn

Licensed Therapist

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania, a Nationally Board-Certified Counselor (NCC), EMDRIA Certified in EMDR, and Approved Consultant with EMDRIA. I earned my BA from Temple University and my MA in Clinical-Counseling Psychology from LaSalle University. I completed my graduate practicum at Community Council Health Systems and a graduate internship at Network of Victim Assistance.
Since I began my undergraduate degree, I have had the opportunity to work in diverse settings with patients coping with a variety of challenges. I have worked in family-based mental health clinics, non-profit community-based organizations, schools, drug and alcohol treatment centers, and private practice.
I am also a member of the International Association of Healthcare Professionals.
I have genuine compassion, eager enthusiasm, and a strong commitment to the clients that I serve.
I live in the Lehigh Valley with my husband, two children, and our dog. I am a former competitive gymnast and my love of the sport has been passed down to my children. In my spare time, I enjoy making memories with my family and friends, exercising, traveling, and learning about holistic practices to incorporate in my lifestyle and treatment to patients.

 

WITH A NEW DAY COMES NEW STRENGTH

My Approach & Values

My approach to therapy is personalized, strength-based, and grounded in proven techniques. I use evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, while integrating more non-traditional types of therapy including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and Mindfulness. Together we will repair and build upon the existing foundation in which you enter therapy, to create a healthier you. I provide a warm and comforting space for my patients to feel heard and safe while promoting self growth and long-standing change.
