Carol E Davis-Serpas

LCPC

Carol joined Meier Clinics in June of 2004 and continues to provide individual and family therapy for adults and older adolescents. In addition to providing weekly outpatient therapy, Carol also works with clients in Meier Clinics’ Adult Day Program.

Carol describes her therapy style as warm but direct. She uses a variety of psychotherapy approaches including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, insight oriented, dialectical behavior therapy, and client-centered methods to meet the needs of each individual client.  Carol has received specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for the treatment of trauma and grief.

Some common treatment concerns include:

Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Panic Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Personality Disorders, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and Self Injury

“It is a privilege when hurting people trust you enough to walk beside them during difficult times. It is one of the loveliest aspects of “the body of Christ.” As we learn particular lessons in life, we can share this wisdom with one another, and comfort them with Christ’s love. This is what I feel called to do.”

Carol received her Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Roosevelt University in 1991 and completed her clinical internship at the Illinois Psychiatric Institute. She has over eleven years of experience in psychiatric hospitals as a Christian counselor and has worked as an outpatient Christian counselor for nine years.

Other issues that Carol frequently works with:

Communication, Relationship Issues, Singleness, Conflict-Resolution, Grief /Loss Recovery, Marital Concerns, Feelings of Emptiness, Family Issues, Parenting, Trauma, Divorce, and Hopelessness.  Carol attends a local, non-denominational church and has one adult son. She accepts clients who qualify for a reduced fee based on financial guidelines.
