About Carolyn

Carolyn Faucette is an Ohio-licensed independent social worker, LISW, with 20 years of clinical experience helping adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and parenting challenges. She focuses on practical coping skills and clearer communication when family life feels overwhelming.

She draws on several evidence-based methods to help people manage emotions and rebuild routines after loss or major change. Sessions tend to emphasize real-world tools such as behavior changes, values-based choices, and emotion regulation strategies. The approach is conversational and goal-directed, with attention to what the client needs right now.

Carolyn also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, and difficult family patterns. She addresses caregiver stress, blended family issues, and problems with commitment or control. When grief or major life transitions occur, she helps clients make practical plans for next steps.

Her background includes long-term clinical practice in community settings and direct work with adults affected by family conflict and life-stage challenges. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas alongside cognitive-behavioral tools and attachment-focused thinking to support coping and clearer relationships.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations about goals and options. Carolyn focuses on concrete skills you can try between sessions and revisits what works. If you want to start, confirm available session options before booking.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and problem-solving in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carolyn will collaborate with a client to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in about what is and isn't helpful and adjusts the plan over time so sessions stay relevant to the issues at home.

Specific online session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and caregiving responsibilities. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or sessions that do not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can use a mix of strategies from ACT and CBT to teach emotion regulation, behavior experiments, and communication skills that transfer into daily life.
