Caroline Ivens is a Clinical Professional Counselor Intern licensed in Nevada, specializing in substance abuse counseling, addiction treatment, trauma-informed care, and crisis intervention.
Her primary expertise lies in working with clients struggling with alcohol and drug abuse, using motivational interviewing to help them discover their own reasons for change while addressing underlying issues such as mood disorders, personality disorders, and impulse control problems that often accompany addiction.
She also specializes in trauma work, employing Cognitive Processing Therapy and DBT for clients with histories of sexual abuse, emotional disturbance, and dissociative disorders, with crisis intervention training that enables her to provide support during acute mental health emergencies.
Caroline holds two Master of Arts degrees—one in Substance Abuse Counseling from Ottawa University (2015) and another in School Counseling—along with a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Behavioral Health Counseling. Her background as a school counselor has given her strong skills in working with teens navigating peer relationships, school issues, self-esteem struggles, behavioral concerns, suicidal ideation, and self-harm.
Beyond her work with adolescents, she serves adults and elders facing anxiety, depression, grief, divorce, relationship issues, and major life transitions through person-centered and solution-focused methods tailored to each client’s unique needs. She is particularly committed to supporting women dealing with women’s issues and single mothers managing multiple demands, while bringing cultural sensitivity to her work with Asian, Black and African American, and Native American communities.
