More about Carolyn
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Nevada and Maine with over 10 years of experience working with individuals, families, children and couples. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, coping with grief and loss, life changes, parenting challenges and depression. I have also worked as a therapist in foster care and with families who have medically fragile children.
I approach every person and their area of concern as unique and provide help from a non-judgmental lens. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach utilizes ideas from cognitive-behavioral, narrative, person centered and humanistic theories. All of our dialogue and the treatment plan will be tailored to meet your specific and unique needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She is outstanding with her career and what she is meant to do with her patients time during session
I am so grateful for Ashley. I always feel heard, understood, and I appreciate the way she skillfully offers me new positive ways to think about things or challenges negative thinking patterns. She’s helped me to break through some barriers and is actively helping me put bad habits to rest and pick up new healthy ones. Without her guidance and support, I wouldn’t be able to move closer to a place of peace and joy.
