Caroline Lyle
CSW
Hello! Thank you for reading some more about me. I am excited to be here and hopeful for the opportunity to work with you. Here is some information about myself:
I earned my BA and Master of Science in Social Work here in Louisville, KY at UofL. Since 2021, I have gained my experience in nonprofit community program & resource settings, pediatric outpatient clinics, nonprofit therapeutic outpatient clinics, and in the school system providing therapeutic services and collaboration.
My work as a therapist is informed not only by clinical experience, but my own lived experience of challenge, change, transition, and growth. I know seeking support can feel vulnerable and healing is rarely a linear process. In my experience, therapy works best when it is genuine and relational. My approach to therapy emphasizes building strong therapeutic relationships; connection is made and trust is earned, fostered with empathy, curiosity, and respect.
I am passionate about working with kids, teens, and young adults who may be struggling with low self-esteem, feeling stuck, depression, anxiety, emotional regulation and awareness, and other issues. In therapy, I offer a supportive and collaborative space where clients can build confidence, increase self-awareness, and develop skills that support meaningful growth.
I pull various techniques from modalities to fit each need, mainly drawing from CBT, somatic work, art, expressive, play style, humanistic, and more. I have experience with body image related issues and work with eating disorders. I am working towards more education and training in this area for the future as I truly believe everyone is deserving of accessible care.
When I am not working, I enjoy the outdoors, get in local parks, spend time with my dog, and try new things. I enjoy exercise and yoga/stretching, dabbling in new hobbies and artistic avenues, hanging with family and friends, and researching stuff. I love to visit the libraries and their free activities also. Making new connections and learning things means the fun never ends!
I am looking forward to meeting you soon!
