Caroline Mullen is a NY & NJ LCSW, experienced in working with individuals & families in the greater NYC area. Whether someone seeks to address a specific problem they may be struggling with, or simply strive to improve their lives, through gaining insight into a therapeutic relationship, a new understanding lends to creating personal growth & change.
My approach
Using a client-centered approach to support the whole person in a positive therapeutic relationship - an integral dynamic for positive change and an improved sense of well-being.
My focus
Many of the clients I work with have everyday struggles, from stress management to specific goal-targeted planning around transitions & life changes to more general problem areas they may seek to gain a better understanding of and improve conditions. The same holds for all ages, from the school child to the older, retired adult.
My communication style
I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming what may challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling, satisfying life and to take the first steps toward change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
My goals for you
In working collaboratively together with clients to identify their therapy goal(s) while respecting their self-determination and readiness.
My first session with you
The first session provides an overview of what brings someone into an appointment and what they may be looking to address. It is important to review one's personal history as it pertains to their current situation; a brief discussion of what one may expect for goal setting & therapy, and an overview of psychotherapy & appointments.
