Carole's
Vision:
My counseling approach differs from traditional talk therapy. I do not talk at clients or remain silent. I interact with my clients in a direct and respectful manner. My vision as a psychotherapist is to assist my clients in discovering what they really want from their lives, how to develop tools to achieve their goals, and the courage to live with them.
