Carolyn Faucette, LISW

Carolyn Faucette is an Ohio licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 20 years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She listens first, then helps people identify what matters and what gets in the way. Sessions focus on clearer thinking, emotion regulation, and skill practice so daily tensions feel easier to manage.

Carolyn draws on several evidence-informed methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and take meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thought patterns and change behavior in straightforward steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings run high.

Attachment-based ideas come into play when past relationships shape current reactions. Client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in the person’s experience and priorities. Together these approaches help people address anger, improve communication, and reduce repeating patterns that cause pain.

She has worked in a range of settings over two decades, helping people through life transitions, caregiving stress, blended family challenges, and divorce or separation. Carolyn aims to make sessions useful and directly applicable to everyday situations. If someone is looking to manage temper, rebuild trust, or handle work frustration, she helps map practical next steps.
