Carol Wenzel-rideout

Dr. Carol Wenzel-Rideout is a compassionate psychologist who understands that individuals often seek psychotherapy when their usual coping mechanisms become inadequate or counterproductive. Many may feel overwhelmed by life events or confront the painful realization that their current lives do not align with their desires. Life transitions, such as the loss of a loved one, the birth of a child, divorce, job changes, or retirement can significantly challenge one's sense of self, relationships, and core values, often leading to symptoms of anxiety and depression. With her extensive experience in working with diverse populations across different races, ethnicities, religions, and sexual orientations, Dr. Wenzel-Rideout caters her approaches to suit teens and adults alike. As a practitioner, she employs psychodynamic, interpersonal, and cognitive behavioral (CBT) therapies in various modalities, including couples, individuals, and family sessions. Her collaborative methodology encourages exploration, guiding clients in discovering what they wish to change and how to progress, always with deep respect and empathy for their unique experiences.
