About Carolyn
Carolyn "Renae" Traywick is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She has 13 years of experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and the pressures of parenting. Her approach is calm and straightforward, aimed at making hard conversations feel manageable.
Renae draws on client-centered care to make each session focused on the person in front of her. She listens first, then helps people set clear goals they can actually work toward.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is part of her toolbox for changing thought patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. Many clients come for help with life changes such as career shifts, grief, or decreased motivation. She has spent a decade working with students and teenagers around behavior concerns, and she applies that experience when parents want practical strategies.
She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and workplace stress. Her work includes attention to adoption and foster care questions, autism and Asperger Syndrome related concerns, ADHD, and co-occurring problems. Renae frames problems in plain language and breaks them into manageable steps.
Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and how to start doing it. She offers an individualized plan that reflects a person's goals and preferences. Renae encourages small experiments between sessions so progress can be measured.
The aim is steady improvement, not overnight fixes.

How her approaches fit into online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person's experience without judgment. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps a person set goals that matter to them. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to sort through feelings and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new ways of responding. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with motivation or routine.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That shared decision-making helps shape what sessions focus on and what practical skills are tried between meetings.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face to face, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat works for short check-ins, and text messaging is useful for brief reflections or scheduling. These options give flexibility for parents and working adults who need different ways to connect with a licensed professional.
