Carol Ann Pusey, MA, LPC, CAC, CCDP, is a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of life. She understands that many people may begin to notice subtle changes in their outlook on life, such as diminished interest in their surroundings or appearance, and may even find themselves neglecting relationships with family and friends. Carol recognizes that while mood fluctuations are a normal part of life, extended periods of emotional distress may require professional support. With a person-centered approach that reflects her humanistic values, she embraces the transformational impact of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Carol believes this therapeutic method serves as a powerful catalyst, shifting perspectives and ultimately changing behaviors that have been adversely affected by emotional reactions. Moreover, she is excited to launch a Smoking Cessation Group, aiming to collaborate effectively with participants and their family doctors to foster a nicotine-free lifestyle. Through this program, participants will acquire valuable tools to manage and alleviate nicotine cravings, empowering them on their journey to better health.
