About Carol

Carol Siggers Snow is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Virginia with four years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. Carol also helps people dealing with parenting strains, anger, self-esteem challenges, career stress, bipolar mood concerns, and major life changes.

She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and client-centered methods. Sessions emphasize understanding strong emotions and the patterns they create in daily life. Therapy sessions are practical and straightforward, with attention to communication, attachment, and coping skills.

Carol pays particular attention to problems that grow out of family history and attachment, including abandonment, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and family-of-origin problems. She also addresses codependency, commitment concerns, communication and control issues, and challenges related to divorce, separation, or domestic violence.

Her background centers on helping people who feel stuck or isolated. In session she listens for how emotions shape behavior, then helps people try new ways of responding. She works with clients to clarify values, manage overwhelming feelings, and rebuild connection with themselves and others.

Clients can expect direct, steady support that focuses on real-life changes. To begin, the usual next step is completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial meeting.

How Carol uses EFT, ACT and CBT in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying strong emotions and the patterns they create in relationships and daily life. It helps people name feelings, understand attachment-related responses, and try different ways of interacting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify personal values and teaches practical exercises to accept difficult thoughts while taking value-driven action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses specific strategies to change unhelpful thinking and coping habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carol will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She adjusts techniques over time based on what is useful and what the client prefers, so sessions stay focused and relevant.

Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list formats explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work, school, or caregiving responsibilities around appointments. Some formats allow shorter check-ins or phone-only meetings when video is difficult, and others support longer, in-depth conversations when more time is available. Discussing practical needs at the start helps shape how sessions are scheduled and run.
