About
Carolye Asfahl
MA, LPC, NCC, EFCT
As a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist (EFCT), I specialize in helping couples to understand deeper emotions, grow self-compassion, and connect with their partners from a secular approach. Feeling a safe and secure connection with your partner is an essential need. I can help you both in building a stronger, deeper relationship.
My Background
My professional experience encompasses roles as an NCAA Division I Track & Field Coach, a Corporate Facilitator specializing in Leadership Development, and 15 years as Chief Operating Officer for a successful mid-sized company. Throughout my 30-year career, human development has been integral to every position I have held. These combined experiences, along with my dedication to fostering meaningful connections, enable me to support my clients effectively in realizing their full potential.
My Approach
Our wisdom to heal exists within us. Often it is muffled by the noise of cultural and societal pressures as well as impactful experiences of our past. These influences shape our thoughts and behaviors in impactful ways. I’ll help you learn to listen and find your true self within. Together, we’ll work to strengthen your emotional awareness and discover your fullest self.
​
With couples and families, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to foster more secure and resilient relationships. EFT is a powerful, evidence-based approach that assists you and your loved ones in understanding and enhancing your emotional bonds, effectively transforming conflict into deeper connection.
​
For caregivers, I use Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) to help you navigate the complexities of parenting. This evidence-based approach equips caregivers with strategies to cultivate stronger, more supportive relationships with their children.
