Caryn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia and has been practicing since 2000. She earned a double major in Spanish and Psychology from Emory University and received her Master of Social Work from Boston College Graduate School of Social Work. With over 26 years of experience, she has worked with individuals and families in both clinical and school settings.
Caryn works with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, anger concerns, parenting-related stress, and life transitions. She has extensive experience supporting survivors of domestic violence and working with trauma, grief, and the impact of difficult life experiences.
Her clinical approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, strengths-based work, narrative therapy, and solution-focused techniques. She has completed extensive training in EMDR and is certified in the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a therapeutic listening intervention informed by polyvagal theory that supports nervous system regulation and emotional resilience.
Throughout her career, Caryn has remained committed to evidence-based practice and ongoing professional development, bringing steadiness, perspective, and depth of experience to her work. She believes in creating a supportive, collaborative space where clients can build insight, develop coping skills, and move toward meaningful change. She occasionally brings her dog, Sullivan, to the office, whose friendly presence often adds comfort and lightness to sessions.
