Caroline Biber, LCSW
At times, many of us will find ourselves feeling overwhelmed or lost, or feeling like things just aren’t working anymore. Sometimes we find ourselves confused and realize that we just don’t know what we want anymore. Or maybe it feels like no one knows the real us. Maybe you’ve had a difficult time in your relationships. Maybe you come from a family where you didn’t have what you needed or were wounded in some way. Maybe you’ve been hurt and didn’t have the support or help that you needed. Or, maybe you’ve found yourself on a path that just doesn’t feel like the right one for you.
My father was a psychologist and loves to remind me of the time when, as a child, someone asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I smiled and answered: “I’m going to be a therapist and work with my dad. We’re going to call it ‘Biber and Dad’.” When I relocated back to Charlotte in 2005, I was lucky enough to join my father’s practice where we worked together for 10 years before he retired.
Becoming a therapist was an early and easy fit for me professionally. Connection and relationships have always been important to me, and as a therapist I’m able to use the connection and relationship with my clients to help them explore, process and heal. I believe in everyone’s capacity to heal and change.
I am a Charlotte native and went for UNC Chapel Hill for grad school. In addition to working as a therapist in private practice, I have worked in a variety of non-profit and mental health settings, including domestic violence and sexual assault programs, refugee resettlement programs, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte Counseling Center, private mental health clinics, and surrogacy and adoption programs. My clinical experience is varied and has offered me the opportunity to work with diverse populations and needs. I also provide Collaborative Divorce Coaching and work as a Mitigation Specialist. In my free time I am involved in various community volunteer activities, and stay very busy with my husband, 3 children and rescue dog, Bo. I look forward to the opportunity to speak with you soon.
