Carol Coon brings years of hands on experience working with children, families, couples, and young adults. Her style is warm, collaborative, and very much grounded in real life. She has supported families navigating behavioral and medical concerns, and she understands how complex those situations can feel on a day to day basis. You know what. When life adds layers, it helps to have someone steady in the room.

Carol works interactively with families facing transitions such as divorce, remarriage, chronic illness, developmental disabilities, and the ups and downs of adolescence. She also has a strong interest in helping young adults who feel stuck or overwhelmed, including those experiencing early independence or what is often called failure to launch. Her work focuses on practical progress while keeping relationships at the center.

She has specialized training in trauma treatment, including EMDR, and uses these approaches to help clients process past experiences and build resilience. EMDR is also used for performance enhancement when appropriate, which can be helpful for clients who want to move past blocks that hold them back in work, school, or life.

In addition to her clinical work, Carol regularly presents training workshops for physicians and attorneys. That background reflects her ability to communicate clearly, think systemically, and collaborate across professions. Honestly, it shows in how she works with clients. Thoughtful, engaged, and focused on meaningful change.
