Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.

Hi! I'm Caroline, I've been a Clinical Social Worker since 2004. I've worked in schools, in outpatient counseling, brain injury rehab, residential and foster care programs, and in supervised visitation and parenting education. I am currently providing telehealth services to adults, 18 and older, in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I work with individuals with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, parenting issues, adjustment difficulties, and who are going through life transitions. It can be challenging to reach out to ask for help, and I will work with you to try to make it a positive experience.

I am a therapist, faerie, and musician drawn to therapeutic work by a love of people and our collective journey through life. With a but of humor and a relaxed demeanor, therapy sessions with me often feel like getting together with a trusted friend. As a more feminine man, I use my lived experience to create a space where we can be queer as a $3 bill while being taken seriously and acknowledged for the full people we are. In particular, I intend for the space we create together to be a time without judgements and expectations of the “outside world”, regardless of where they come from.

If you or a loved one has problems with substance, I can help. I work with people and families with substance issues- misuse of alcohol, cannabis, stimulants, and other addictive substances. My approach moves at your own pace, without pushing, digging, or agendas. I work with family members and loved ones to provide education and support to reduce feelings of isolation. I specialize in addiction, alcoholism, as well as co-occurring issues underlying addiction such as depression, mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma. Through therapy things start to seem possible that didn’t seem that way before.

Over the last thirty years as a Clinical Psychologist, I have learned how children, adults, couples, and families break free of disheartening relational patterns and rewrite oppressive stories. I have learned how to attend to what matters most: feeling safe, opening to love, and creating a life guided by compassion. I truly love my work, and that may be because I am still learning every day how to ask questions that spark wonder and creativity, how to listen for the depth behind words, knowing when to be patient, when to challenge.

Are there times you think your child is capable of better performance in school? Do you feel your child's academic performance is slipping and are you looking for a way to identify educational problems and address them? Neuropsychological and psycho-educational testing may be the answer. I provide comprehensive neuropsychological testing services to preschoolers through young adults. My test battery and report help uncover the underlying causes of academic underachievement such as ADHD, motor skills disorders, communication disorders, mood disorders, disruptive behavior disorders, pervasive developmental disorders, congenital learning disabilities (LD), inadequate education or a combination of these factors.

My clients are children, adolescents, and adult women. They are experiencing anxiety, low self esteem, and have a history of loss, grief, abuse, and/or trauma. I also see teens and college student clients adapting to life choices and rapid life changes. Most clients are looking to stop the mental hamster wheel of negative and intrusive thoughts and improve self esteem. Many adults are looking to cope with loss, broken family relationships, addiction within the family, and finally explore and resolve childhood trauma.

Change is good, but change is also hard! In my experience, therapy is about working with individuals to help them reach their life goals, despite obstacles and maximize their potential. Despite the hard work involved, my mission is for therapy to be a positive experience. Simply stated, it should be a collaborative effort based on problem solving, support and the exchange of ideas. Additionally, treatment needs to be developed in the context of a person's life experiences and history. My hope is as treatment progresses individuals can move forward with what they have learned to independently facilitate future change.
