Overall rating

“I have tried multiple therapists & just never felt a connection with anyone. I always felt like they just said the same thing to everyone, but things are so different with Carolyn. She is so genuine & I feel like she truly listens & offers solutions/insight for what I am currently going through. She also remembers what we talk about from appt to appt which makes me feel like she truly cares about her clients as people, but also as a friend. She has literally been a Godsend & I am so grateful!”

Getting to know Carolyn Abel

Hi! I'm Carolyn. I know I'm probably biased, but therapy is one of my favorite things! I'm so glad that you're here, and I am excited for the opportunity to work together. I want to work with clients who are ready and willing to make changes in their lives. Don't get me wrong, change is difficult, but so is staying the same. You may not know exactly what needs to change, but being willing to do something different is a step in the right direction! Working with me, you'd be working with a motivated therapist who takes a vested interest in your life and needs. I hold a Master's in Counseling from Cincinnati Christian University, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support you effectively. I believe in coming alongside you in your healing journey. I am excited and ready to wrestle with life's unanswered questions with you and to help you change your life! Please reach out if you have questions or are curious about the therapy process. It is not lost on me how difficult it is to reach out when you need help, and I am honored that you chose to reach out to me. Let's walk through this together!

What should a new client know about working with you?

At our first session, I like to spend time getting to know one another and what brings you to therapy. Like I've said, it's not lost on me how hard it is to pick up the phone and make that initial appointment and I do not take it lightly that you chose me. I like to take a casual, laid-back approach early on as your comfortability grows so we can build rapport. Moving on from there, I like to take my cues from you as to what your goals are and what we need to discuss.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Carolyn is the most genuine, empathetic, accepting, and refreshingly real therapist I’ve worked with in the 20 years I’ve partnered with mental health professionals. She’s willing and able to meet you where you are, while providing Easter eggs that have a knack of resounding. 5 stars, would recommend to every friend!
