Getting to know Carolyn O'Connor
Hi, I'm Carolyn. I'm a therapist on Cape Cod with a Master's in Social Work from Boston College. I typically work with my therapy animals: two Cavalier King Charles spaniels and my bunny Boots. I wanted to join this platform to make therapy more accessible to people who are unable to see me in my office. One of the best compliments I have ever received is from a client who told me that I made them feel "so special." That brings me joy. I am very compassionate and love making people feel comforted and supported while they are struggling with various issues. I am here to listen in a non-judgmental way and support you. My specific experience is with adults and older adults experiencing depression, anxiety, mood disorders, addiction, stress, and more. You are not alone. I am here and I look forward to meeting you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
In our first session, I want to know what is your most pressing issue. Then, I will spend some time getting familiar with your background and goals for therapy.

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.

I deeply appreciate how patient Carolyn is with me. She guides me along and helps me take things at my own pace to get to where I want to be. She has also offered so many helpful resources that have been a major asset to me regarding elder care for my parents. I'm so glad to be working with her.

Carolyn has been the best therapist I have ever had, and has been with me through some very difficult experiences. I would recommend her to anyone, at any time.

Carolyn is kind and intelligent and she is my biggest cheerleader but she also isn’t afraid to tell me if I’m wrong or what I need to work on. She is honest and empowering and if she wasn’t my councilor I would want her to be my friend

Simply amazing.

Carolyn informed me regarding how she structures therapy for her clients.
She breaks it down into easy to understand concepts and then provides an example to help the client understand how to apply CBT in real life.
I’m looking forward to our next session.

July 31, 2023Genie B.Verified patientVideo visit
This was my first session in a very long time, and she reopened my heart to getting therapy.
This is one of the kindest people I’ve spoken to in so long.
I hope that anyone who has struggled with therapy or getting help- speaks with her. She truly did change my mind.
