Carolyn Peterson

My clients describe me as:

empathetic, thoughtful, authentic, knowledgable and funny. I strive to create a space that honors the complexity of our individual backgrounds.

Something to know about my approach is:

grounded in evidence-based practices, tailored to you. I recognize the weight of unrealistic expectations, both self-imposed and external, that can leave you perpetually unfulfilled. I am a licensed psychologist who works with adults.

Together, we will:

navigate the complexities of your background, unveil your coping mechanisms, nurture resilience, hone essential skills, foster empowerment and a sense of fulfillment. We'll transition from merely existing in your life to truly living your life.

I specialize in working with people who:

are high-achieving adults going through life transitions and struggle with persistent self-criticism whether stemming from past trauma, intricate learning histories, or pressures of daily life.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I provide a free 15 minute phone consultation to chat about your therapy goals, and assess if my approach aligns with what you are looking for.

More about me and my practice:

Some insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits, you may be able to receive reimbursement for all or a portion of the therapy fee. If you are interested in using your out-of-network insurance benefits, I can assist in checking insurance benefits.
