In a world that can often feel heavy with forces pushing and pulling us downward in so many directions it can feel all too easy to lose track of your true self.

I work with individuals who struggle with these same questions. Questions that arise from the struggles with trauma, anxiety, depression, attention, autism, and others. My counseling services focus on addressing the integrated person.

Maybe you came here because you’re feeling anxious, feeling down or feeling stuck. Maybe you’ve had a recent loss, struggling in your job, or experiencing stress in your relationship.

Maybe you’ve had a recent life transition and you need support. Maybe you know exactly what you want and all you need is the validation and support to make a change.

Pull up a bean bag chair, grab your favorite fidget, and let's talk. Maybe you describe your life as "a lot," and struggle to find the spoons to get all your stuff done as well as make meaningful change.

You want to pursue fulfillment, satisfaction, meaning, and peace in your world. If any of these or other painful places in your heart are true, I would love to get a chance to walk alongside you and find what you're looking for together.

Greetings and welcome. I'm Dr. Karen Beth Acheson, Ph.D., and I have over 20 years of experience bringing warmth, compassion, and a sense of humor to help empower people to make healthy changes in their lives. My primary focus is adult psychotherapy. My style is down-to-earth; I draw from humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral & mindfulness-based therapies.

You're feeling overwhelmed, tired, maybe even frustrated at reaching your potential and dreams in life, including your relationships marriage, work, and friendships. You're feeling stressed, worried about life issues, and maybe issues of pain, grief, disappointment of the past play into your daily life. It is difficult to move forward, you struggle with being authentic in relationships. Stressed and exhausted. As a seasoned Mental Health Counselor of 25 + years, I consider it an honor to journey with you through the healing process. I am trained in EMDR to help with trauma, anxiety, PTSD, relationships.

Are you struggling with daily tasks? Do you want more out of your relationships? Does it feel as though your heart is heavy? Struggles like this can require a helping hand and therapy can be the step you need. Therapy has the potential to empower and guide growth to overcome the challenges that life brings. It has the ability to bridge tough conversations, acknowledge the impact that the greater society has on us and unpack the emotions that feel unexplainable. Soon that checklist can feel smaller, relationships feel more fulfilling and that weight a bit lighter.

I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, trauma recovery, loss and grief, as well as crisis and life transitions. I help individuals and couples recover from painful experiences, overcome barriers that interfere with relationships and wellbeing, and find healthy, satisfying approaches to problems.

"Email for faster response" As a clinical professional counselor with over 12 years of experience, I provide an individualized and diverse approach to help you achieve your needs and have worked with a wide range of concerns such as: LGBTQ, addictions, behavioral issues, personal wellness, depression, stress/anxiety, PTSD, relationship issues, and many other issues you may be struggling with. With me you can expect a warm, safe, trusting, empathetic, and compassionate person who truly understands and cares about your well-being on a very personal level.

You Matter. You are not broken. You may be struggling with past or present trauma, abuse, religious trauma, failures, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, life transitions, or toxic family relationships – but this does not equate to brokenness. My approach to therapy is specific to who you are and what you need at this point in time. I love the work that I do and I am looking forward to helping you find your way to peace and comfort.

We all have experiences that shape who we are and may bring emotional suffering to our lives and relationships. If you are ready to let go of shame, worry and self-doubt, we will work together to build a safe, trusting relationship that helps you to discover your unique strengths and build effective coping strategies. If you're ready to embrace hope for a better tomorrow and are looking for healing and freedom from past hurts, anxiety or depression, then I am hear to listen with compassion and provide guidance on your journey.

Welcome. I currently have in office or virtual openings for Traditional 55 minute, or Individual EMDR Intensives (trauma clearing and/or early childhood repair). Please see my website www.hearthealing.org - For Couples Repair Intensives: www.revive-your-relationship.com - Gain clarity and compassion, and feel more connected to others. Men and women come for healing from their past traumas and relief from stressors, such as relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, abuse and neglect, ADD, ACOA and boundary issues. Others come to gain a sense of who they are, what their life's purpose is, or spiritual growth.

Being open and sharing ones experiences can be tremendously daunting and requires feeling supported and safe. I aim to provide a space of non-judgment, compassion, and trust in order to meet my clients where they are. In our sessions you will be able to share your experiences openly without criticism. I will listen, provide feedback, reflections and collaborate with you. My goal is to enable each client to leave therapy with the ability to address the issues that brought them in.
