It's a privilege to bear witness to the beauty and pain of someone’s story. I approach such a privilege with care and sensitivity for each individual, providing a supportive and non-judgmental environment that allows clients to talk about their issues in a safe space. A belief in each person's innate goodness and worth is what motivates my work with clients. I understand that each individual is part of a larger system involving family, community, culture, and more. Assisting clients in processing through the different parts of their life, I hope to help clients experience the change, growth, and freedom they desire.

Hello, I’m Carlyn (pronouns she/her) I believe love and belonging are at the core of who we are and how we connect with others. My experience as a mother of three has helped me understand how attachment plays an important role in how we develop. Our early attachments, trauma, and life experiences can create incredible discomfort and we learn ways to cope and survive, that are not always helpful. Some people think that going to therapy is about getting advice from someone, but our job is to help you learn to trust yourself. My goal as a therapist is to be accepting, non-judgmental, and help to create a safe space for you to grow.

As a queer, person of color, I believe in creating a non-judgmental and culturally sensitive space to assist clients in creating a life that they love. Due to the pandemic, many of us have had more time for reflection than we might have had in the past. Maybe this time of reflection has caused you to question your identity, gender or sexuality. Exploring and integrating your gender or sexuality can feel overwhelming, especially in a world that can be hostile to LGBT/Queer people, but you do not have to do it alone. Seeking help takes courage. You are courageous.

Throughout our life’s journey, we may encounter various stresses that challenge us—experiences of grief, depression, and anxiety may frequent as we navigate this terrain on our path to mental health and well-being. Engaging in the process of counseling can be intimidating as you move through feelings of sadness, despair, loneliness, and periods of expansion and contraction. As an Existential- Integrative Therapist, it would be my honor to walk with you as you transcend these challenges and reclaim your autonomy, experiencing wholeness, enhanced connectedness to self and others, and rediscover meaning and purpose in life.

No one can control nor predict when difficult things will happen, but it is a guarantee that challenges do occur in every life. Resilience is defined as the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness; is the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape; elasticity.

I most often use EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy and Sandtray therapy interventions.
Seeking help? Good for you.. and remember, there is nothing “wrong with you”. Like many, you have been faced with challenges that have overwhelmed your available resources. Each person has the capacity to function in a healthy way. I believe that emotional responses, especially stress, occur on a spectrum that can range from healthy to dysfunctional. My goal is to create an environment in which you can regard yourself positively while learning to work through helpful solutions.
