Driscoll Care Group

Carey Driscoll has worked in the social work field for 25 years and has been in private practice for a decade. Before working in private practice, Carey was the Principal of an all-boys residential school in California. Prior to this, Carey was an educational consultant in the State of Alaska. Before this, Carey was a school adjustment counselor at a school outside of Boston for kids ages 5-21 who had failed (or been failed) in the regular education setting and needed a special education school setting. In all of these settings, Carey’s passion was to find the root of the problem so that each child/person could find success and joy. Labeling humans with a diagnosis, without getting to the why has never been my approach and in fact, I dislike labels, as they don’t inform practice. Taking the time to understand how people view the world and why, makes their behaviors make sense. Fixing someone's behaviors is absolutely doable, but one needs to understand the why first. Stepping back and getting to know someone at their core makes understanding their path to happiness clearer. Carey comes from a realistic approach and values each person for who they are and where they are in their journey of life.
