Getting to know Caitlin Carey

Hi there, I'm Caitlin! My goal is to help you understand how your life experiences have shaped who you are — and use that as a foundation for real change. Together, we'll build on your strengths and develop tools for genuine healing. My focus Life can bring periods of distress that leave you feeling far from yourself, often during transitions like a career change, breakup, new parenthood, or a move. It's common to pull away in those moments, but you're not alone. I work best with clients ready to build confidence and tools to face anxiety, trauma, or relationship struggles head-on. My approach I take a trauma-informed, strength-based approach, meaning you set the pace, I'm just here to meet you where you're at. We'll use both talk therapy and art therapy to dig into what's really going on, with self-compassion as the starting point for real, lasting change. My communication style I bring warmth, empathy, and zero judgment to our sessions. If you've ever felt like your story wasn't really heard, I get it and that won't happen here. I show up with kindness and compassion, and I'll always be honest with you, while making sure I truly get where you're coming from. My journey to mental healthcare My path into mental healthcare grew out of something I've witnessed firsthand, how deeply transformative therapy can be for people rebuilding their lives after a life-changing event. I've also seen the quiet power of art to hold what words can't always reach, offering a gentle way through when we're not sure how to say what we're feeling. My goals for you We start by building trust and creating a treatment plan around what matters most to you. Together, we build on your existing strengths and reframe what feels like weaknesses into new perspectives. Using both talk and art therapy, we explore patterns in your life, moving at whatever pace feels right for you.
