In my practice it is a belief that each person possesses individual core strengths and resiliency to promote change for problematic issues. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth for a better future. As a previous elementary educator, I have found that combining techniques learned in the classroom as well as time spent as a therapist have allowed me to gain valuable knowledge to help the whole person.

You're probably looking for a therapist--right? You could be feeling confused, anxious, or overwhelmed; even scared, angry or depressed. Possibly you have relationship or addiction issues.

Perhaps, you have been traumatized by violence, an accident, sexual assault, or witnessed a death.

Life is hard. We are all fighting our own unique battles. Sometimes these battles are within ourselves, in our relationships with loved ones or with daily challenges that life presents.

I specialize in adults and teens with trauma with a specific focus on Complex PTSD. I also work with couples suffering from intimacy issues. I work with individuals suffering from anxiety and depression as well. My approach to therapy is to be honest and forward while promoting this in my clients. I believe a non-judgmental environment is very important. My clients like that I am blunt and confrontational in therapy, avoiding trite therapy terms and tailoring sessions to clients' specific needs. I use many different techniques and theories in my practice, though I tend to stay myself in session to remain real and honest.

'We do what we want' is a primary premise in the approach Karen takes to counseling, and a clear reflection and understanding of what that means to each client, is where she will begin. Karen's counseling style is based in Reality Therapy; our choices are powerful. She will help her clients to take stock of where he or she is, where they truly desire to be, and help search her client's soul to determine what he or she is willing to do to achieve success as they define it.

Everyone has a voice and wants to be heard. Come and find your voice, build confidence and come to someone who will listen. Helping couple's, individuals, and adolescents build new foundations of self-reliance. Some techniques I use are EMDR for trauma, depression, and anxiety. Hypnotherapy for relaxation, phobias, Menopausal symptoms, sleep disorders, and breaking bad habits.

"I am not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become." In today's world, people can be ambushed by any number of experiences that can leave us drained, exhausted, and feeling like it's hard to move forward. Counseling can be an outlet for individuals to sort through what they're feeling, and get perspective, and assistance, and most of all, a certainty that someone is listening; that your voice is being heard.

Trauma, abuse, & grief can greatly impact how we function on a day to day basis. Everyone's experiences are unique & individual. There may be times where you cannot explain why this or that happened and that can feel both confusing and frustrating. Has something like this ever happened to you before? Through counseling, we can explore different modalities & evidenced based research to locate the roots of this confusion and frustration.

You are pushing through every day, holding on to the last thread of hope that you have. You feel unworthy, unloved, unseen, and unheard. Even when the person you love most is around you, you still feel alone. You isolate yourself in times of stress and try to find resolve in your isolation, but you end up feeling even more lonely. You try to find distractions to keep your thoughts from building, but the distractions don't work. Things keep building up under the surface and the pressure almost feels like it is too much. You feel like you are about to break. Are you ready to make a change and allow yourself the peace that you deserve?

Unlovable. Unworthy. Not Good Enough. Out of Control. Exhausted. You look vibrant & happy from the outside, but really you’re just wanting to be accepted by others. The perfectionist part of you never gets the love from others that its always wanted. Fear of conflict makes it hard to say no. Why not just take on the blame for what others have done? At least you won't lose someone.. again. Disconnected from the present. Stuck in thoughts about the past or fears of the future. Haunted and wounded by words and memories. You have a dream for the future, but you're feeling trapped and unable to move forward. Ready to re-write the story?
