John Carroll

I’m John Carroll and I am a Pre-Licensed Mental Health Counselor with SYNC Psychological Services, PLLC. I work with teens, young adults, and adults navigating life transitions, identity exploration, grief, anxiety, depression, and substance use. My clients often feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about the future. They seek greater self-understanding, clarity, and meaningful change. I strive to create a supportive space where we can explore challenges together and move toward growth, understanding, and deeper connection with yourself and others.

My approach draws from trauma-informed, humanistic, existential, and person-centered modalities. I incorporate creativity, gentle challenges, and genuine curiosity to encourage self-discovery and healing. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I work closely with you to build awareness, compassion, and confidence in navigating life’s complexities.

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of New Haven and a Bachelor’s in Written Arts from Bard College. My background includes working in residential, outpatient, and individual settings with diverse, multidisciplinary teams utilizing such approaches as ecotherapy to foster connection and improve self-regulation.
