About Carolina Dudley

My name is Carolina Dudley and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the State of Michigan and Ohio.I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) licensed mental health therapist with nearly two decades of experience helping individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered. As someone with lived experience of ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder, I understand firsthand the unique joys and challenges that come with being neurodivergent. I also specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression.

My practice is grounded in compassion, authenticity, and faith. I offer a non-judgmental, inclusive space where clients—especially those navigating neurodivergence—can explore their experiences, build resilience, and connect with their strengths. Whether you’re working through anxiety, identity, burnout, or relationship struggles, I will meet you where you are with empathy, clinical expertise, and a deep respect for your journey.

You don’t have to do this alone. Healing is possible, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

“Carolina has been wonderful to work with. She really digs deep to find the root cause of what I’m feeling and helps me work through a variety of things l am dealing with. I’d recommend her to anyone needing support.”

“Carolina is top notch - great listener, respectful, knowledgeable, and more.”

“Carolina takes the time necessary to listen.”

“While it is early on, I believe Carolina was an attentive listener and let me say anything I needed to while also helping guide me when I didn't know what to say or bring up, which is very helpful as I have a hard time knowing what to say. This is my first time trying therapy and so far it seems like a good fit.”

“She is knowledgeable and has consistent good feedback”

“So far shes opened my eyes to a few ways I was seeing myself without actually acknowledging it. Shes patient and on time. She goes at my pace and I appreciate that. I’ve only had her twice but so far this is what I’ve gotten and I feel like that’s a huge and amazing start. Comfortability is key”

“Good job so far.”

“It’s very helpful”

“Carolina is as good as it gets - great listener, wonderful advice, appropriately challenging when needed. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

“Straight to the point”

“I love talking with Carolina, she’s a very good listener and thoughtful in her responses and advice. Would highly recommend her.”

“So grateful for her ability to listen, remain nonjudgmental , and understanding! With all the things I carry it feels great to know when I talk to her I can really just let go.”

“Top notch - respectful, strong listener, appreciate the directness, love the focus on practical advice and making incremental improvements”
