Are you feeling disheartened by your search for the right queer therapist? Do you feel like therapy is too formal/clinical for you to feel a connection with your therapist? Hi! I’m Karen. I’m a registered social worker. I remember my coming-out journey and how important the right support was. As a queer woman with lived experience, it’s important that sessions with me feel warm and authentic.I value creating a comfortable safe space where you can just be yourself! Together we can unpack your feelings & experiences and learn some new ways of coping. We can laugh,connect and move towards a life that feels good for you!
I am passionate about supporting 2SLGBTQ+ folx with their mental health & wellbeing. I am trauma-informed and work from an anti-oppressive and intersectional lens. I am a feminist & I understand how important it is to talk about the impact of oppression and inequity on our mental health. I am trained in various modalities & integrate these when appropriate.
You don't have to go through this alone! Let me join you on your path and let's work together to find a way forward. I'm looking forward to connecting with you over a free 20-minute phone consultation to get to know you and talk about what you are looking for. I am pleased to offer virtual support with flexible availability.
