About Carol

With my Masters in Psycholohy, I have excellent listening skills and am highly committed to encouraging others. Besides my professional counseling, I learned a great deal about Senior Caregiving as my husband declined over ten years and spent the last threes years of his life in a nursing home. I am looking for part time or even temporary one day jobs. My biggest accomplishment was that I traveled around the world four years ago with my son.
