Carol Queen

Carol Queen, LCSW, is a North Carolina licensed clinical social worker who brings five years of professional experience to her work with adults, older adults, and youth, as well as couples, groups, and families. She supports clients navigating stress and anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, anger management, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Her style emphasizes creating an open, supportive space where people can talk honestly about what they are thinking and feeling without fear of judgment.

Life can shift quickly, and when circumstances feel chaotic, it is common to feel overwhelmed, irritable, or on edge. Carol approaches therapy as a place to slow down, make sense of what is happening, and identify meaningful steps toward change. She focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship while helping clients clarify personal goals and move toward them at a pace that feels realistic and respectful of each person’s values and lived experience.

Carol has provided crisis intervention, substance use treatment, and intensive family interventions, and she has worked with military populations, drawing perspective from a decade as a military spouse. Her counseling is grounded in evidence-based care, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, trauma-informed care, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which she is certified in. She aims to offer culturally competent support through active listening, empathy, and an empowering approach that honors each client’s autonomy and unique path forward.
