Caroline Belden, APC

Caroline supports teenagers and young adults (ages 13 and up) through identity development, life transitions, and relationship struggles with a trauma-informed holistic approach. She fosters courage and self-compassion as she works with clients to create space for exploration, awareness, self-love, acceptance, and change.  Caroline believes that healing and thriving begin with being fully seen and heard, and she is committed to providing unwavering support and accountability for clients as they lean into their authentic selves.
