Feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or major life changes? You don’t have to face it alone. I’m Karl, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor (CADC) with 17+ years of experience helping people navigate difficult times. My approach is supportive, practical, and judgment-free. Using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and honest conversation, I help clients better understand their challenges, build effective coping skills, strengthen resilience, and gain confidence in managing life’s ups and downs.
I believe meaningful change begins with genuine connection and personalized support. I help individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship challenges, and life stressors using practical coping skills and evidence-based approaches. My goal is to provide a supportive, judgment-free space where healing and growth can take place.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn, you don't have to face it alone. I offer a compassionate, down-to-earth approach grounded in experience and evidence-based care. Together, we can build practical tools, overcome challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. Call, text, or email when you're ready.
