I often tell my clients that they are the ones driving the car, I’m just in the passenger seat making sure we don’t go off the road!

Caroline earned her Master of Social Work with a Specialization in Trauma, Violence and Justice from Boston University School of Social Work. Through her specialization, Caroline developed a strong culturally competent and trauma-informed lens. She utilizes a strengths-based perspective and recognizes the interconnectedness of people and their environment. Fostering a warm, inclusive, and affirming space for her clients, Caroline implements an eclectic therapeutic approach - because therapy isn’t one size fits all! - rooted in concepts and techniques from evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, all while remaining flexible and adaptable to meet each client’s unique needs. Caroline’s compassionate and collaborative approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that all clients are the experts of their own lives. Caroline has experience working with individuals with acute and complex trauma histories including but not limited to sexual violence, child abuse, intimate partner violence, and other forms of interpersonal violence. She is especially passionate about her work with young adults.
