About Carolyn
Carolyn "Renae" Traywick is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Nevada and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 13 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, family conflict, career concerns, and young adult issues among other challenges. Carolyn has significant experience supporting students and young people navigating school and early career pressures.
She spent the past decade working with students and teenagers who had behavior challenges both in and outside the classroom. That background shaped her practical approach to everyday problems. She often helps people with low motivation, self-esteem, confidence, grief, and parenting questions.
Carolyn draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She focuses on clear, practical strategies people can use between sessions. Expect conversations that identify patterns, test new responses, and track progress over time.
Sessions concentrate on specific problems like workplace stress, money worries, relationship strain, and the transition to adult roles. Carolyn also addresses ADHD and compassion fatigue as contributors to daily overwhelm. Her work includes attention to adoption and foster care experiences, autism spectrum issues, and co-morbid conditions when these are relevant.
She uses a client-centered stance that respects each person’s goals and preferences. That means choices about goals and methods happen together. People who come to her for help can expect direct, practical steps alongside supportive listening.
How Client-Centered and CBT work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective. In practice that means the therapist listens without directing the plan and helps clarify what matters most. It is useful for exploring identity, relationship decisions, and life transitions common in early adulthood.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. Sessions identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavioral changes. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, study or work performance, and managing stress around money or relationships.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to focus more on problem-solving, cognitive work, or listening and goal-setting.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, or commuting. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that don’t require being on camera, depending on format. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly use these options to help people keep therapy consistent with everyday life.
