About Carolyn
Carolyn "Ashley" Wanyonyi greets people with straightforward care and calm focus. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who draws on 11 years of practice to help people handle stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Ashley keeps sessions practical and down to earth.
She listens without judgment and helps clients set clear, manageable goals. Conversations often include simple skills for coping, ways to reframe difficult thoughts, and steps to improve daily routines.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in clinical settings in Nevada and Maine. That experience exposed her to a wide range of concerns such as grief and loss, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, mood concerns like bipolar disorder, and issues around aging and caregiving. Therapy with Ashley is collaborative.
She draws on Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Internal Family Systems ideas to shape the work. The exact approach is matched to the person's needs and personal goals rather than a single method applied to everyone. Sessions focus on what people want to change now and what steps will get them there.
Ashley aims to support clearer communication, better coping skills, and a stronger sense of direction. She helps people move from feeling stuck to noticing small, sustainable progress.

Online support
Approaches that suit online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting, respectful working relationship. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify what matters most for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and handle stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and goals the client can try between sessions to create quick momentum.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how they prefer to connect, then tailor methods that fit those priorities. This is a collaborative process and can shift as needs change.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step problem solving, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life while keeping therapy focused and goal-oriented.
