Carole Cullen is the President and Founder of My-Therapist, Inc.  She developed a team of therapists that specialize in Marriage & Family Therapy to address the current rise in requests for couple and family therapy in our communities.  Carole is a licensed marriage and family therapist with years of experience treating individuals, couples and families.  She holds a Masters Degree in Marriage & Family Therapy from Hofstra University and a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from SUNY Stony Brook.  Carole also has extensive training in Trauma and Bereavement work with individuals, children and families.   

As a therapist trained in family systems, Carole can treat a wide range of serious clinical problems including: depression, anger, marital problems, anxiety, individual psychological problems, and child-parent problems.  Her therapeutic style is a brief, solution-focused therapy that drives to attain specific therapeutic goals.   This type of solution focused therapy has been proven to be effective and in some cases more effective than standard and/or individual treatments for many mental health problems such as: adult schizophrenia, anger management, affective (mood) disorders, adult alcoholism and drug abuse, children's conduct disorders, adolescent drug abuse, anorexia in young adult women, childhood autism, chronic physical illness in adults and children, and marital distress and conflict. 

On average, this type of short term therapy last from 10-20 sessions, focusing on attaining therapeutic goals and moving towards the end of treatment.  Many of our clients have reported an increase in their energy levels, being happier in their relationships, being less stressed about school or work and improvements in their marriage and family life.   

In addition to being a family therapist,  Carole was on the faculty staff at Hofstra University where she taught in the Marriage & Family Therapy programs.  More recently Carole has worked with families that have lost a loved one on September 11th, 2001.  More recently, Carole works with at-risk children and their families.
