About Carolyn

Carolyn Faucette is a licensed social worker who brings an existential perspective to everyday problems. She combines practical tools with thoughtful conversation to help people cope with stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship challenges. Carolyn works from Ohio and has two decades of professional experience as an LISW.

She focuses on making therapy useful and down-to-earth. Sessions center on what matters most to each person and on small steps that fit real life.

Background and approach

Carolyn tailors discussion and plans to match individual needs, whether someone is managing depression, parenting strain, or major life changes. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors. Attachment-based perspectives guide work on communication, trust, and family dynamics.

The existential frame invites clients to consider meaning, responsibility, and choices when facing loss or transitions. Clients can expect calm, respectful conversation that aims to reduce overwhelm and build skills. Carolyn pays attention to emotions, relationships, and practical coping strategies.

She also supports people dealing with trauma, anger, bipolar mood concerns, and caregiver stress. Beginning therapy is often hard, and Carolyn acknowledges that step with encouragement. She helps people set clear goals and checks in on progress as treatment moves forward.

Online support

Practical approaches for online therapy and meaning-centered work

Existential therapy helps people face big life questions and the emotions that come with loss, change, or uncertainty. It focuses on values, choice, and what gives life meaning, which can be useful for grief and life transitions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills for noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps clients commit to actions that match their values while reducing struggling with difficult inner experiences.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional responses. It is helpful for improving communication, trust, and family dynamics when relationships cause stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to pick methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That process is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging can fit brief updates, planning between sessions, or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to use therapy around work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
