I help individuals, partners, and families sort through their history and stories of pain, highlight their resilience, expand their emotional awareness, and practice new behaviors for a life of health and wholeness.

I practice under the LPC-MHSP (Temporary) license in Tennessee with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Graduate Certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am a National Certified Counselor, Certified Prepare/Enrich Facilitator, and have level 1 & 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. My supervision until I am fully licensed is under Dr. John Kennedy.

Before entering the counseling profession, I dabbled in various creative ventures between parenting and homemaking. I enjoy working with my hands, whether in the dirt gardening, repurposing old furniture, or mending ragged stitches.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples who feel stuck in relationships. I work with clients to better understand their attachment styles and attune to their emotions. I also work with multicultural individuals and couples and work to help explore identities. As a second-generation Korean-American, I recognize the difficulties of navigating multiple cultural identities and the stigmas around mental health and therapy. I offer my services in English and Korean.

Caroline received her BA in psychology from Cornell University and her MA with academic distinction in clinical mental health counseling from Northwestern University. She is currently a registered mental health counseling intern with the state of Florida, working under the supervision of Sarah Watt, LMHC. Prior to pursuing the counseling field, she spent ten years in the northeast building experience in the culinary, nonprofit, and business worlds. This gave her invaluable perspective that she could not have gotten had she entered the counseling field right away. At the end of 2019, she felt called back to the area of mental health and to her hometown of Ocala, FL where she lives with her daughter. She has experienced the positive impact of quality counseling in her own life, and strives to provide this for each of her clients. She is passionate about the power of the therapeutic relationship and the growth that can occur when we nurture our minds.

My clients know me as someone who will help them take a nonjudgmental approach to their situation, connect with deep needs that they have long ignored, and work to strengthen emotional connections in their lives.

Life’s transitions—whether in relationships, family, or discovering a renewed sense of self—can feel both overwhelming and full of possibility. Many couples find themselves caught between love and conflict, unsure how to move forward, while individuals may be seeking clarity in a new season. With thoughtful support, it is possible to rebuild trust, strengthen communication, and create deeper, more secure connections. My work focuses on guiding couples and individuals through these pivotal moments with insight, compassion, and strategies that foster resilience and lasting change.

I became a therapist because I value the meaningful relationships I’ve built with my clients. It is an honor each time someone chooses me to walk alongside them—through the difficult parts of life and in celebrating their growth and successes. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, yet at times more directive with couples when it supports their goals. I draw from proven frameworks, including the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment-based approaches, and Narrative therapy. This allows me to tailor each session to your unique story, always with the aim of strengthening connection and creating lasting transformation.

I am also the host of Everything is Clinical, a podcast for mental health pros, where we explore challenges in the field and dive deeper into important clinical topics. Sponsored by The Right Counselor, this work extends my passion for advancing clinical excellence and supporting the growth of other professionals in the field.

While my schedule often books a few weeks in advance, I can typically schedule this introductory meeting within the week.
