About Carol
Dr. Carol Schwartz is a Michigan psychologist with 33 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with anger, anxiety, stress, depression, parenting concerns, and life changes. She also helps people facing addictions, sleep problems, ADHD, and relationship strain.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In sessions she talks through specific situations, identifies patterns, and practices new responses so people can handle tense moments more effectively.
Carol has worked with people who are new to therapy and with those who have had therapy before. That breadth of experience means she can adapt pacing and tools to fit different starting points. She aims to make conversations plain and focused so progress is easier to see.
When anger shows up as sudden loss of temper, simmering resentment, or stress at work, she helps people recognize triggers and try alternative ways to respond. She also supports those coping with someone else’s anger by developing boundaries and self-calming techniques.
Her background includes many years working in Michigan settings with adults across a range of concerns. She asks clients to take an initial step by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How her CBT approach is used in online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real situations. It breaks problems into smaller parts and teaches practical skills for stress, anxiety, anger, and low mood. Exercises often include tracking thoughts, trying new behaviors, and reviewing what worked.She also uses focused problem-solving during sessions to map triggers and develop clear action steps. That approach helps people handle moments of anger, manage work frustration, and reduce rumination by practicing alternatives in everyday settings.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will work with each client to decide whether CBT and problem-focused work fit their needs and goals. Together they set priorities, try techniques, and adjust tools based on what helps most.
