Getting to know Carol Fox

Hi there, I'm Carol! My name is Carol Fox, LMFT, and I have been in practice for many years, witnessing the changes in the need and acceptance of therapy as a tool for becoming a better person. Finding self has many paths, so many therapies have been created, but the focus is always the same: finding the self in the lives we live each day. My approach to therapy is to find the right path back to the self. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from California State University, Sacramento, which laid the foundation for my work in mental healthcare. My approach To find oneself, a good way to start is with a life review, digging up hurtful places to see if there are unresolved issues that prevent growth. Focusing on goals and conscious living puts the past in perspective so goals can be achieved. First, though, we start with the "now," what brought you to seek help. The present path provides direction and a starting place. The theoretical approach is exploring the family system as a tool in discovering blocks that may prevent the "self" from becoming the self meant to be. My focus Life presents many challenges, whether trauma or change of circumstances. These challenges are on a spectrum in everyone's life. People willing to work on themselves are most receptive to therapy, or the art of exploring. People resistant to growth also benefit from discovering the why, the how, and the self. My communication style I have been told I have a soothing voice and a welcoming presence. It feels natural to let the client lead, to follow, support, and delve deep into hurt or pain only if the client invites. I may ask questions or reveal what I notice, but the client must do the work, for only then is therapy useful. My journey to mental healthcare My original plan was to become a school teacher, which I did for eight years..
