Relationships are the engine of human survival. Whether you are troubled and unsure about a relationship, want to build a healthier and more vibrant relationship, or need to recover from a bad relationship, I will help you identify the core challenges and find a path to achieving your best life and best relationships. I am Karen Robertson, LMSW, wife, mother, creative spirit, and a lifelong student of relationships and how people work (or don't) together. I would be honored to help you with the relationship that is troubling you.

It can be difficult to begin the process of therapy. I am honored to support couples, families and individuals who want to begin to do that work. I offer a relational space that focuses on feeling safe and understood. My approach is from a family systems lens with somatic influences. It is the focus of my work to support the repair of broken relationships with others and one self through emotional exploration. Areas of interest include but are not limited to family and couple relationships, sexual intimacy, non-traditional families, addiction, high conflict, the family court system, play therapy and more.

Counseling is a collaborative effort between therapist and client where we work together to help you reach your goals for emotional healing and psychological well-being. I believe that you have inside of you, what you need to heal, but during times of stress and pain, it's difficult to find. That's why therapy can be so beneficial - it can help you uncover your strengths again, or even perhaps help you see them for the first time, in an environment of complete support and acceptance.

What would you do tomorrow if you woke up free from that little voice of doubt, anxiety, and self-loathing? As a therapist, I love to explore the answer to that question with you. It’s my belief that we all are deserving of living into our greatest selves, but that this voice and its irrational nature prevent us from doing so. In an effort to change its narrative, we work together to explore, challenge, and reframe the negative core beliefs at the root of your suffering. It is the dual process of building self-awareness through empathetic exploration of blind-spots and the development of a strong therapeutic connection.

Our lives can be chaotic and we all need support to make sense of the chaos. Challenges in life can be opportunities for growth, and that growth is tough work to do alone. Whether that chaos manifests itself in a battle with depression or anxiety, challenges in a relationship, or navigating life following a transition, loss, or diagnoses, hope and healing are possible.

Openings for New Couple and Individual Clients! You want a therapist who is both relatable and professional, who keeps the focus on you, but won’t make you feel like you are talking into empty space. You want to feel confident that your therapist can actually help you get to where you want to go. My clients appreciate my balance of expertise and authenticity, knowing we have a plan and aren’t winging it, and value action as much as talking. We’ll complete a specialized assessment to determine your strengths and needs, and use resources I’ve gathered or created to give you a step-by-step guide to work towards your end goals.

We will figure things out and look for options to improve your life, your relationships, and issues you have.

Are you tired of feeling frustrated or hurt in your relationship? Do you have the same argument over and over with your partner but yet things never seem to change? You may blame each other or speak with sarcasm or defensiveness when you talk. It's easier sometimes to just avoid the hard conversations but then the problem never gets solved and you're left feeling unheard. Maybe you walk on eggshells because you can't be honest about your true feelings. Or perhaps your connection has grown stale over time and the passion just isn't there anymore. You'd love to have deeper emotional intimacy and exciting sex with the one you love.

Has a recent event made you reevaluate your life? Or are you in a relationship and believe that you could be getting more out of it? If so, let me help you explore. Life is too short and there is always room to strive for more. I believe that people need to be authentic and genuine in order to fully experience and enjoy their lives and relationships. There is no greater feeling than discovering and embracing your true self. Stress/anxiety/depression can weigh you down and make you forget what you are aiming for. If you are struggling to make sense of your next step in life and don’t know where to begin, I can help.

Do you feel like you're stuck in a pattern that no longer serves you? If you are experiencing struggles within your relationships, work, or school we may be a good match. My approach is holistic, strength based, and solution focused. We will bring all factors into focus to help you with creating your best pathway forward while creating space for you to explore who you are and what you want. I enjoy working with college students, teens, couples, and adults.
