Carol Hendrix, PhD, is a compassionate psychologist dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their emotional lives. She believes that rather than spending energy on changing others or placing blame for personal struggles, individuals can cultivate the courage to love and transform themselves, which in turn fosters deeper connections with those around them. With her extensive knowledge of the internal messages shaped by early relationships, Carol helps clients reshape their relationship skills learned from parents and others. Her specialties encompass grief and relationship issues, recognizing that grief is a profound emotional response to significant loss, whether it be the death of a loved one, health decline, marital separation, or job loss. With over twenty years of experience in writing evaluations, resolving relationship challenges, and working through the ramifications of loss, Carol understands how mental illness and addiction can affect family dynamics. She also recognizes that harsh realities, such as economic uncertainty and trauma, can leave lasting impacts, making vulnerability a shared human experience that she is committed to addressing through her work.
