Carol Stilson, LPC
Hi, I’m Carol — part therapist, part coach, part hope-spreader (think Johnny Appleseed with a therapy license and a slightly twisted sense of humor). I am a non-traditional therapist. I’ve spent years sitting with people in their darkest moments — psychiatric hospitals, addiction programs, crisis hotlines — which taught me one thing: real change is possible, even when it feels impossible. I blend Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR for trauma, plenty of laughter, and zero judgment to help you stop fighting your pain and start moving through it.
