Carol Fritzsche, LPC

Carol Fritzsche is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years as a mental health therapist and background in education and social services. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, anger, depression, relationship and family struggles, grief, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, ADHD and codependency.

Her approach blends a few evidence-based methods. She draws on Client-Centered work to build a practical, collaborative relationship. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also brings psychodynamic ideas, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused tools to short- and longer-term problems.

Sessions tend to focus on skills you can use day to day. That includes clearer communication, setting boundaries, and managing strong emotions like anger or anxiety. For trauma-related concerns she incorporates trauma-informed techniques alongside cognitive and mindfulness work. She also supports people handling caregiving stress, chronic illness, aging issues, and the overlap between mental health and life transitions.

Carol has experience working with people who struggle with attention and social differences, and with those affected by domestic violence and grief. She aims for straightforward conversations and practical steps rather than clinical jargon. Her background in schools and social services informs a pragmatic style that looks for what can be changed now.
