About Carolyn
Carolyn "Renae" Traywick is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience. She works with adults on common household and life stresses, including anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and career setbacks.
Renae has spent much of the last decade supporting students and teenagers with behavioral challenges in and outside the classroom. That background shapes how she listens to practical problems and breaks them into manageable steps. She draws on client-centered principles and cognitive behavioral tools to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses.
Sessions tend to focus on concrete goals. That might mean learning skills for managing anxiety, talking through grief, improving self-esteem, or planning next steps after a job change. She also supports adults navigating adoption and foster care issues, autism-related concerns, and the stress that comes from caregiving or workplace demands.
Renae adapts what she does to each person’s situation. She checks in about goals and adjusts techniques when something isn’t helping. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes; sessions are practical and hands-on.
If you are juggling family responsibilities or feeling stuck after a life change, she offers straightforward guidance and tools to work through those problems over time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. In practice this means the therapist follows the client's lead, helps clarify concerns, and supports decisions about next steps. This approach works well for conversational issues like parenting stress and family conflict.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches specific techniques to change patterns of thinking and behavior. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, low motivation, and managing stress with step-by-step strategies and homework between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust if something does not feel useful. That collaborative process helps match practical tools to everyday problems at home.
This profile does not list which session formats are currently provided, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example letting someone join during a lunch break, have a shorter check-in when needed, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt their use of client-centered listening and CBT exercises to the online setting to keep sessions focused and practical.
