Caroline Thompson, Therapist

Hi! I am so glad you’re here! 

My name is Caroline, and I am a recent graduate of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, where I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. With a foundation in Psychology from Wofford College, I have always been fascinated by the complexity of the human mind and what makes each of us unique.

I work with clients of all ages, with a special love for kids and adolescents (ages 7–18). I have experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and emotional regulation. My approach is warm, relational, and collaborative—I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, understood, and truly heard. And while counseling is meaningful work, I believe it can also be a positive, even enjoyable experience. You might just have fun in my office! I love incorporating art, movement, and music into sessions, because I firmly believe no one is too old to play.

I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also view each person within the context of their relationships and broader systems — recognizing how family dynamics, past experiences, and lifelong patterns shape the way we think, feel, and show up in the world. Together, these lenses allow me to tailor therapy to your unique needs while supporting growth that is both meaningful and lasting.

For those who desire it, I am also able to offer Christian-integrated counseling, thoughtfully weaving faith into the therapeutic process in a way that honors each client’s individual beliefs and values.

Outside the office, you might find me trying out a new workout class, catching live music, or working on my golf game — which, I’ll admit, has become its own lesson in distress tolerance! Having played three sports growing up, movement has always been one of my favorite forms of self-care, and I love bringing that same energy into my work with clients.
