Caroline Joseph MFT

My husband and I have been seeing Carol for couples therapy and have had a fantastic experience with her. My husband and I have seen other couples therapists and by far, we have gotten the most out of working with Carol She is a Certified Gottman Therapist, and the whole experience of a detailed assessment with a thick stack of questionnaires, made us feel confident she was accurately assessing areas of strength and areas for improvement in our relationship.
My husband and I have found it so helpful that Carol points out the dynamics in my husband and my communication and helps us work out how to communicate more effectively. In the past we felt like couples therapists were mediators or translators and while we learned from that process, it didn’t give us the tools we needed to notice our dynamics and shift them on our own at home. But with Carol we have been able to take these ideas home and use them. I also love how she helps us get to the roots of what is underneath our reactions and feelings towards one another. This has helped us really feel heard by one another.
I also appreciate that Carol stays up on the latest research in the field of counseling and couples therapy. I feel very confident knowing she knows about the research related to couples therapy and how to help us most effectively.
I have so appreciated Carol’s gentle but clear approach. I would recommend Carol to anyone who wants a meaningful and satisfying relationship with their partner.
