Getting to know Carol Swanson

Hi there, I'm Carol! I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in California and Arizona, with a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Phoenix. I specialize in childhood trauma, family relationships, and life stressors. My approach is client-centered because I believe everyone has personal strengths they can use to overcome any obstacles. I will collaborate with you to identify those strengths and help guide you to live a fulfilling life. My approach I use the humanistic approach of therapy to meet you where you are in life. I will not judge you; I will only support you and help lead you to live the life you want. My focus I have extensive experience working with adults who are processing their own childhood traumas. My communication style As a humanistic therapist, I will listen to you and support you. My journey to mental healthcare I have a long history of supporting others. Encouraged by peers to pursue a helping profession, I found my passion in working with people and assisting them through their personal traumas. My goals for you Goals will be established early in therapy. We will first focus on the desired goal that brought you to therapy. Once we address that solution-focused goal, we will work on the underlying issues that led you to seek support. My first session with you During the first session, you can expect some information gathering to understand the history of your presenting problem. There will also be time to learn more about who you are as a person and who is in your support network.
