About Carole
Carole Spivack is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, based in New York with over 20 years of experience. She focuses on anger management and how it shows up in relationships and intimacy. She also helps with stress, anxiety, self-esteem, career concerns, and coping with life transitions.
Her sessions are direct and collaborative. She works with people to build a more positive self-image and practical skills that affect motivation, confidence, and workplace challenges. That often means looking at how anger and control issues affect daily life and patterns with others.
Carole uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also brings mindfulness techniques to help people notice strong feelings without acting on them immediately. Conversations are interactive and focused on real-life changes clients can try between sessions.
She has worked for two decades with adults facing mood and impulse challenges, including obsessive-compulsive patterns, disruptive mood concerns, and social anxiety. Her work includes addressing forgiveness, communication problems, and impulse control in practical ways.
Sessions emphasize clear steps, skills practice, and setting achievable goals. People who come for help with anger, relationship strain, or career stress will find structured sessions that move from understanding to action. She speaks English and works from her New York practice.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Carole uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so clients can try small experiments and notice what changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness skills to notice strong emotions like anger and pause before reacting. These practices can reduce impulsive responses and improve focus in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carole will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She reviews what is helping and adjusts the plan as needed, so sessions stay practical and goal-oriented.
Confirm the available session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel time. They also allow for consistent weekly practice and skills coaching that link directly to daily routines.
