About Carolyn
Carolyn "Renae" Traywick is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Nevada and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 13 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, family issues, career challenges, depression, grief, parenting concerns, and related matters. Carolyn works with teenagers and adults and has a long record of supporting students with behavior challenges in and outside the classroom.
She uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations to identify what is causing distress. Carolyn notices unhelpful thoughts and habits with clients and practices different ways to respond. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the main approaches she draws on, alongside client-centered methods that center the person's own goals.
Her recent work emphasizes school-aged concerns and young adult issues, having spent the last decade working with students and teens. She also addresses adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, intellectual disability, and co-morbid conditions when these relate to the concerns brought into sessions. Career and workplace problems, money and financial stress, and the effects of seasonal shifts are other areas she often addresses.
Sessions typically focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. That can include testing small behavior changes, tracking thoughts and mood, and rehearsing new ways of communicating. Carolyn aims to help people build clearer routines and steadier coping skills so day-to-day demands feel more manageable.
She encourages people who are ready to make changes to take a first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The subscription-based session model used varies by location and can be canceled at any time.
How CBT and client-centered work in online sessions
Carolyn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT focuses on spotting specific thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps in daily life. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her approach and centers the client's goals and preferences during sessions so the work stays practical and relevant.Finding the best approach is part of the process. Carolyn collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs and goals. She helps clients decide what to try first and adjusts techniques based on what is useful in real life.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue work between appointments by using tools like thought records and behavior experiments that can be practiced day to day.
