About Carolyn

Rev. Carolyn Simon is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her work with clients.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a compassionate, client-centered approach that invites honest exploration of thoughts and feelings. Her style is relaxed and empathetic, and she aims to create a non-judgmental space where clients can build practical skills for everyday challenges.

Carolyn draws on a range of methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused work, EMDR, and hypnotherapy, tailoring interventions to the individual's needs and goals. Her practice addresses many concerns such as stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, parenting and family matters, self-esteem, career challenges, and coping with life changes.

Additional areas of focus include caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, forgiveness, and smoking or vaping cessation. She frames therapy as a collaborative process, helping clients discover strengths and develop self-empowering strategies.

Fluent in Estonian as an additional language, Carolyn supports people through transitions and difficult experiences with patience and practical guidance.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Rev. Carolyn Simon combines client-centered work with evidence-informed tools to support emotional growth and symptom relief. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and acceptance so clients can explore feelings and goals at their own pace; it is useful for building self-awareness and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and is often applied to anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) addresses relational patterns and emotional bonds to help people improve communication and connection in close relationships.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative rather than fixed. Carolyn works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then suggests methods that fit - sometimes combining elements from several approaches to create a tailored plan of work.

Online therapy with Carolyn is available through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and differing comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions and to access support from home or other everyday settings while working toward practical change.
