I enjoy engaging individuals, couples, and families in a warm, collaborative, open, and authentic exchange.
Issues of life and living can be overwhelming and painful. Navigating relationships, chronic stress, anxiety, traumatic experiences, attachment wounds, complicated family dynamics, and even health conditions may leave you feeling stuck and unable to make change in your life. I want you to know there is hope. Therapy is a path for experiencing relief/healing and restoring deep connection with our self and others. I am passionate about healing that incorporates a deepening of the spirit and the spiritual development that can come through nurturing a resilient nervous system.

I love working with older adolescents and adults struggling with different forms of anxiety, relationship issues, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and PTSD/trauma.
I am a Resident in Counseling with the goal of becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I obtained my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. I believe that working collaboratively with the client and building an authentic rapport is critical to the counseling relationship. I want to provide an empathetic and warm space that allows an individual to slow down and name the heartaches, pain, and difficulty they are experiencing. My desire is each individual will find therapy as a soft landing spot to be seen and known.

Because most clients seek assistance for depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship/marital/family issues, I use supportive therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and also use if you request, a couple of specialty methods to assist our work together.
People seek therapy for various reasons, but I understand that, regardless of the reason(s), people need an active listener for support, reflection and at times, "soft" and/or straightforward, and respectful feedback. I honor the work my clients do and am a calm listener, as well as an active therapist when needed. I offer individual, couples/marital, and family therapy 18 years and older. I have 30 yrs of varied experience and hope to help you in the ways you are looking for.

Hi friends! I'm Carolyn, a biracial Certified EMDR Therapist in Richmond, VA who specializes in recent, ongoing, and preventative EMDR protocols for somatic-based healing & sustainable symptom relief from anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, burnout, hypersensitivity, relationship drama & ALL traumas.
Trauma responses & beliefs can FEEL permanent when you have the coping skills but LACK the ability to access them. What you need is a more somatic approach to healing memory networks w/ more desirable response patterns learned from what's past, to reflexively improve responses in similar future instances. EMDR does wonders for issues w/ control, self-worth, attachment, identity, performance, and/or hypersensitivity. We’ll demystify how EMDR works as a domino healing effect, prepare you for what to expect, AND give you a taste of its efficiency. If the goal is therapy that works to become PRN, I'm the EMDR Therapist for you.

I specialize in treating individuals with various mental health concerns, including borderline personality disorder (BPD), addiction, LGBTQIA+ related issues, depression, OCT, trauma, and/or anxiety.

You have always felt driven towards perfection. You attended the right schools, chose the high-pressure career, married the right type of partner, and had children with them. Everyone who knows you thinks you have it all. But something has changed everything for you. You have nagging doubts. Where you once felt in control and confident, you now feel devastated, confused, and lost. You are struggling to get through the day while your numerous responsibilities await. The pressure is starting to feel unbearable.
