Getting to know Caryn Bickel

Hi there, I'm Caryn! I am a seasoned professional with over 25 years of experience. I have a holistic approach, facilitated by my Graduate studies in Spiritual Psychology. My focus My clients tend to be working professionals in various phases of their lives who often need support due to a lack of positive family/community support, changes that have significantly affected usual support, or have never had outside support or therapy before. They value themselves, their commitments, & the process of growth & Self development. My approach Using a CBT/Mindfulness-based, holistic combined approach, this therapy can offer the insight & the tools that can add both depth and practicality to one's experience of themselves & their lives. I aim to help others understand themselves, others, and their lives in ways that highlight compassion, patience, empathy & more. My communication style I often communicate in a straightforward, clear & concise manner that imparts knowledge, understanding, as well as empathy & compassion. At times, therapy sessions may be exploratory, or I may have questions that allow me to listen for very important thought patterns or relational themes. I often give feedback & I always encourage questions. My journey to mental healthcare I really followed a passion and interest that I had in Psychology and how it can be integrated with Spirituality from an early age. I had the privilege of using the depth of my learning in community mental health settings for many years, assisting vulnerable youth & their families. My goals for you CBT is very action-oriented; in fact, avoidance or resistance towards action is often the main driver of problematic symptoms. I am always looking for creative and doable ways to assist my clients in identifying at least 1 action step that can be taken immediately in order to help themselves.
