ISSUES of LIFE, INC. is my way to give back to the community. As life would have it, I was unfairly silenced but found a haven to safely release the bondage and barriers of trauma. I realized that I needed to provide a safe space where people could proudly be who they are, unapologetically, and tackle their own life issues without judgment, ridicule, or shame. I have years of experience as a School Counselor and a Psychotherapist. I am currently enrolled at Liberty University, pursuing a PhD in Psychology. My desire is that every person who walks through the doors of Issues of Life, Inc. will experience hope, growth, and healing.

Carolean Bolden, Intern
I am currently a graduate student at Walden University, pursuing a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My dedication lies in assisting individuals as they face life’s challenges and uncover their strengths within a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental setting. My professional interests encompass working with single parents, survivors of sexual crimes, and veterans. I am devoted to aiding clients in processing challenging experiences, fostering resilience, and attaining significant personal growth. I aim to establish a collaborative therapeutic relationship in which clients feel acknowledged, respected, and empowered to define their own objectives and solutions. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to serve diverse populations and to positively influence the lives of individuals, families, and communities through compassionate, client-centered care.
