Meet Our Team

My name is Caryn Piatt, and I am an LPC-Supervisee at Midwest Wellness Institute. I earned my Bachelors of Science in Psychology with a minor in Mental Health Studies as well as my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Counseling from South Dakota State University. 

 

I specialize in anxiety, trauma, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, working primarily with teenagers and adults. My approach to care is collaborative as well as strengths-focused, and I often use modalities such as Gestalt, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy to support my clients.

 

I chose this profession because both my personal and professional experiences have reinforced how powerful it can be to have consistent, compassionate support. Therapy offers a space where you don’t have to navigate challenges alone—someone is there to help you gain clarity, strength, and direction. I find this work deeply fulfilling because of how quickly clients can recognize their strengths and move toward solutions. Watching clients identify what’s working and build momentum toward their goals is what motivates me.

 

Outside of work, I enjoy Pilates, camping, hiking and spending quality time with friends and family, and I believe these activities help me stay balanced and energized to support my clients.
