About Carolyn

Carolyn Faucette is an Ohio Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. Carolyn focuses on practical, moment-to-moment concerns that affect daily life.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. In sessions she listens to what matters most and then helps people try concrete steps. That might mean noticing difficult thoughts, testing a small boundary with a family member, or practicing a brief grounding skill between meetings.

Carolyn has long experience working with family-related stress, caregiver strain, blended family issues, codependency concerns, commitment and communication problems, and the fallout of divorce and separation. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, and attachment difficulties. Her work often focuses on what people can do differently now to shift patterns that keep them stuck.

Expect direct, plain talk about goals and barriers. Carolyn will help clarify what you want to change and map small, achievable steps toward that direction. She pays attention to what gets in the way of setting limits and making choices that reflect your priorities.

Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings. The plan evolves with your feedback so the work stays practical and focused on everyday life.

How sessions work

How Carolyn uses therapy approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful when someone is stuck avoiding problems or struggling to say no. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift patterns that cause stress or low mood.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions. It helps people who find themselves losing identity in close relationships or repeating familiar, painful patterns with others. Carolyn combines these approaches with client-centered conversation to keep the work grounded in what matters to the person in front of her.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress, setbacks, and life changes appear so the plan can be adjusted together.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also allow practicing skills in real-life settings between appointments. Licensed professionals can help you pick an approach and a session rhythm that fits your schedule and needs.
