About Carolyn

Carolyn Faucette is a licensed independent social worker who focuses on clear, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. She uses straightforward conversation and gentle guidance to help clients find better ways to cope.

Background and approach

Carolyn writes treatment plans that match each person's situation and goals. She brings two decades of experience in social work across Ohio.

That background includes helping people manage depression, parenting pressures, anger, and trauma-related concerns. Carolyn also works with issues like attachment, codependency, communication problems, and the stresses caregivers face.

Her approach blends several therapy styles to fit the person in front of her. She draws on the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build values-based action, and client-centered listening to shape sessions.

Cognitive-behavioral and attachment-focused techniques are used when they help reach specific goals. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.

Carolyn helps clients identify small, doable steps to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every session.

Carolyn recognizes that starting therapy can feel hard. She encourages people to take that first step and offers practical options to make ongoing care manageable.

Her work aims to help clients feel more capable in handling lifes challenges and relationships.

Using relationship and acceptance approaches online

Carolyn combines approaches that help people change patterns and act on what matters to them. The Gottman Method looks at common interaction patterns and helps people learn healthier ways to talk and solve problems in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small steps toward them even when feelings are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship patterns shape current closeness and trust, and it helps reshape how people connect with others.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Carolyn will listen to your concerns and goals, explain different methods, and work with you to choose tools that fit your situation. Together you can try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most in daily life.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation and exercises that benefit from seeing each other. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferable. Live chat or text messaging can help people stay connected between sessions and fit support into a busy day.
