More about Carol
- 35 years' experience
- Female
- Psychologist
I'm Dr. Carol Adams, a psychologist and psychotherapist with extensive experience assisting and supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. Throughout my career, I've developed deep expertise in helping people navigate depression, anxiety, stress, and the lasting effects of trauma. I'm particularly skilled at working with clients who are processing significant life changes and exploring questions of meaning and purpose.
My approach is grounded in creating a safe, affirming space where you can be fully yourself. I work thoughtfully with clients who identify as LGBTQ+, older adults, and those seeking a therapist whose values align with a secular, progressive worldview. I'm committed to addressing the isolation, loneliness, and social anxiety that often accompany life's difficulties, while also helping you work through feelings of guilt and shame, as well as feeling scared and easily triggered that may be holding you back.
I believe in meeting you where you are with genuine care, curiosity, and respect. My goal is to help you build resilience, reconnect with your sense of purpose, and move forward with greater clarity and peace. I'm honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
