About

As a therapist, I am always person centered. I will encourage and empower you to take the lead and let me know what role I need to play in each session. My favorite thing to do outside of sessions is to play with my puppy. He will almost always be in my lap during sessions, guaranteed. I also like to play with my hedgehog, which I think is kind of unique.

Get to know Carolyn Meiman

I love working with kids, and I wanted to be able to help kids from a similar background as me. I decided in middle school that I wanted to be a therapist. While that was the initial goal, that has transformed throughout my education and experiences. I just want to help make people's lives a little better.

Working with kids and families over the pandemic, I saw a huge increase in OCD and how significantly, drastically different people's lives were because of it. It also made me understand how few resources there were, especially for kids in my area. Bringing that skill to this population became very important to me.

My experience is primarily in a general community-based practice. I've worked with kids, with depression, anxiety, parenting skills, family communication, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.

It can be scary, and it can be hard work at times. But you're not alone. I'm there to help you in whatever capacity you need, be it that day or that hour. No matter what, you're going to come out with skills that are going to make a difference, whether it's a big or a small one. You're going learn things that will help them the rest of the way.

Just let me know that's what you're going through and how you're feeling. We will go at your pace. When you're ready to let me know what they're thinking about, I'm here to listen.

My whole life I've had OCD and never knew I had it. But once I figured out I did I found this app and it was so relieving to find people who understood what it was like. Granted many many people on here make posts asking for reassurance, but many have also posted things that have helped tremendously in my journey dealing with this. The therapists on here get it and the one I was paired up with helped me not feel crazy but also helped me check myself for reassurance. Because of her and her guidance it's helped me so much. On top of that, even if you don't have access to a therapist, there is a feature on here that helps you recognize triggers, obsessions, and create ways to tackle compulsions in an easy way to understand. They have free online support groups and live Q&As where OCD experts answer your questions and record the videos on YouTube. OCD has been a very scary experience for me, genuinely some days it felt like I was dying, but this community helped me understand even in my panic and pain I wasn't alone. And neither are you.

I was hoping NOCD would be helpful to my teenage daughter who has moderate to severe contamination ocd. We went through 2 therapists during the 5-6 months we attempted treatment with NOCD.. My daughter didn’t feel understood by her first therapist. She liked her second therapist but was hesitant to do exposures. A lack of motivation on my child’s part made treatment difficult. So, I started working with her therapist to reduce accommodations etc. However the situation at home progressively got worse. When I reached out to the therapist she didn’t respond. Days went by and I got a message that she was collecting resources from her supervisor and colleagues and would get back to me the next day. It has now been over a week and I haven’t heard from her. We had been on a waitlist for a local in person therapist and that finally came through so we are no longer using NOCD. It’s frustrating when you feel overwhelmed and the therapist says if that happens to reach out and we can squeeze in a 30 min session or something…but then I reach out when I feel overwhelmed and desperate for help, and we are left in the dark.

Carolyn has helped me tremendously! My general anxiety and OCD are tightly linked and can make things confusing. She has helped me sift through these different thoughts. I have learned more about how my OCD operates, along with techniques like using RPM statements. I could not recommend this therapy enough!
