About Carolyn
Dr. Carolyn Lennox helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or out of control. She meets people where they are and focuses on concrete steps to reduce stress, manage anger, and handle life changes.
Her style is straightforward and encouraging, aimed at short-term progress and realistic goals. She has 40 years of clinical experience and holds a doctorate in counseling. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist, LMFT, and a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, both in Texas.
Background and approach
That long experience includes work in mental health clinics, family guidance, rehab settings, and independent practice. In sessions she uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and actions.
She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable goals and on hypnotherapy where it may help someone feel calmer or more able to focus on change. Her approach is practical. She helps people learn new skills, practice them between sessions, and track small gains.
Typical concerns include anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship strain, self-esteem, and anger management. People who work with Dr. Lennox can expect adaptable care that respects their values and pace.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose a format that fits their schedule and comfort.

Approaches that translate to online care
Dr. Lennox commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which helps with anxiety, depression, and anger by teaching concrete coping skills. DBT emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, giving practical tools for intense emotions and relationship stress.She also incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy when clients want quick, goal-driven work that targets specific changes. Solution-Focused work helps set clear, short-term goals and track progress in small steps. Together these approaches are discussed and chosen collaboratively so the therapist and client can find what fits each person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins, homework support, or ongoing skill practice between visits. These options give flexibility to match sessions to schedules and practical needs.
