Only went to 3 sessions with Carole, but found she was very sharp and has a good ability in using whatever techniques she's employing to get at the most important matters. Intelligent, perceptive, and my sense is that she would be very effective. Like many therapists, she's on a sliding scale, but her scale last year was very high (at a regular rate $200/hour it's hard to go too far down from there). If my income were much higher, however, I'd definitely feel comfortable using her. Even in 3 sessions, I felt like I really learned something and made some suprising (but genuine) discoveries that would have been hard or near impossible to realize without guidance.She's trained in a number of different techniques, but is not religious about any of them.A friend of mine, who's a couselor, suggests that more than 60% of therapists are not helpful. Carole, I believe does not fall in this category. Hence, a rare and wonderful find, if you can afford it...
