Are you facing emotional difficulties and don't know what the problem is really about or what to do about it?

You’re overwhelmed, exhausted, and resentful, but you struggle to set limits and say no.
My clients are great at looking out for others. Themselves? Not so much. Why? They’re worried about their gain coming at others’ expense. It’s taking a ‘lose-win’ approach to life, and while it attracts plenty of people who want to play, it’s not exactly a fun game. But there’s another game, and it's the one I help my clients master: win-win.

My name is Carol Fox, LMFT and I have been in practice for many years, witnessing the changes in the need and acceptance of therapy as a tool to becoming a better person. Finding self has many paths, so many therapies have been created, but the focus is always the same: finding the self in the lives we live each and every day. My approach to therapy is to find the right path back to the self. Life presents many challenges, whether they be trauma or change of circumstances. These challenges are on a spectrum in everyone's life. People who are willing to work on themselves are most receptive to therapy, or the art of exploring.
