“I have been searching for a therapist like Carolette my whole life. I have been in and out of therapy most of my life and I have never met anyone like her. Her approach is warm and supportive but also straight forward and bold which keeps me accountable to the goals we set and the promises I make to her and myself. Having been through many trauma's herself, she understands me on a much deeper level and knows exactly what to say and how to say it. She is the reason I'm going back to school to do my master's in Social Work. Thank you Carolette!”

Getting to know Carolette King
Hi there, I'm Carol! My name is Carolette King, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Riverside, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. I work with adults and adolescents and specialize in anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem, grief and loss, chronic illness, and the mental and emotional impact of racial disparities.
My approach
Rather than adopt one approach for all individuals and issues, I draw from a variety of methods to create a culturally competent, tailored treatment plan for each client. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-based therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, as these modalities help build a shared understanding of my client's reality, emphasize qualities and skills already present, and allow us to work together to move you closer to your goals.
My focus
I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for adolescents and young adults dealing with life transitions and social pressures, often manifesting as anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem. Because Black and Brown clients often face racial and ethnic disparities in mental health care, I also specialize in issues impacting these communities.
My communication style
My treatment style is warm, open, encouraging, and direct. I consider myself an active therapist, combining experience, education, creativity, and a sense of humor with a down-to-earth approach to counseling to build a relationship of trust and respect with all my clients.
My journey to mental healthcare
I grew up in the foster care system and always knew I wanted to give back. My social worker put me in therapy at an early age, and if it weren't for my own amazing therapist, I don't know where I would be! I began my career with CASA, as an advocate for children in foster care.
