About Carolyn

Carolyn "Ashley" Wanyonyi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Nevada and Maine with 11 years of experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, grief, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes. Conversations focus on what is happening now and practical ways to manage it.

Ashley draws from approaches that center the person and address thinking patterns and behavior. She often uses client-centered methods to listen and understand what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Solution-focused work helps set small, achievable goals.

Her background includes work in foster care and supporting families with medically fragile children. That experience informs how she talks with people about caregiving stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and blended family dynamics. She also addresses aging and geriatric issues, immigration-related stress, and attachment or family-of-origin problems.

Sessions are practical and grounded. Conversations move between exploring feelings, identifying patterns, and trying specific steps to change day-to-day routines. She pays attention to communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and issues such as obsessive-compulsive behaviors and bipolar mood concerns.

Ashley works in English and is based in Nevada. Her method is collaborative: she and the client set goals and track progress together. To begin, the site process asks clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. Online sessions let the therapist follow the client’s lead, reflect concerns, and prioritize what matters most in daily life. This approach helps with emotional distress, caregiving stress, and relationship conversations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In sessions the therapist and client identify patterns, test new behaviors, and use straightforward exercises to change unhelpful thinking. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, OCD symptoms, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that suit those goals, and adjust plans as needed. Clients take an active role in setting small goals and tracking progress between meetings.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also allows using worksheets, brief behavioral experiments, and goal-setting exercises in regular sessions to support daily life changes.
