About Carolyn
Carolyn "Renae" Traywick is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. She offers a warm, empathetic approach and focuses on practical steps people can use to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Carolyn often works with teens and adults who are trying to regain motivation, handle family tensions, or face career challenges.
She has spent the last decade working with students and teenagers around behavior concerns inside and outside the classroom. That background informs her work with young adults and parents who are trying to improve communication or manage difficult moments at home. She brings a steady, understanding presence and helps clients find realistic next steps.
Carolyn uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape sessions around each person’s goals. She listens first, then helps people try different ways of thinking and acting that can reduce anxiety and lift mood. Sessions are tailored to the issues brought in, whether that is grief, relationship strain, anger, or challenges tied to work and money.
Her additional focus areas include ADHD, adoption and foster care, autism, isolation, life purpose, and workplace stress. Carolyn also works with people dealing with compassion fatigue and seasonal mood changes. She encourages small, measurable changes that add up over time.
Carolyn practices in Texas and communicates in English. If someone is ready to begin, she asks them to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a time to meet.
How Therapeutic Approaches Guide Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead. It helps people clarify what matters most to them and feel understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try practical strategies to reduce anxiety or lift mood.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust based on what is helpful. Together they decide which techniques and focuses feel most useful for stress, depression, family difficulties, or money-related concerns.
