Background:
Caroline (she/they) is a Supervisee in Social Work who is passionate about supporting people through life’s most difficult moments with compassion, openness, and warmth. She began her career providing individual therapy at a community clinic and went on to work in college counseling, where she provided individual and group therapy, crisis intervention, and case management.
Caroline believes we are all the experts of our own stories. She uses a narrative framework to help clients uncover new understandings about themselves and life’s possibilities. Caroline has expertise in working with folks who have experienced trauma. She utilizes sensorimotor psychotherapy to help clients extend compassion to themselves and find healing in the body. Caroline also uses interpersonal theory to help clients gain insight into their relationship patterns and create new pathways toward strong, intimate connections with others.
Caroline cares deeply about social justice and continually seeks to learn about how forces of power and oppression impact us individually and collectively. She strives to practice anti-racism in all spaces and relationships in her life. She finds joys in practicing LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy and helping clients explore their multifaceted identities.
