I believe in the importance of each individual and in honoring your story. It is my sole purpose to have clients feel valued and understood, within a trusting, open minded relationship. I operate from a strengths based perspective, offering hope and healing to individuals and families. Testimonial: "Karyn has truly been the light at the end of a very difficult and dark tunnel. Our family will forever be very grateful for her help! Karyn is truly gifted at what she does."
My special interests include parenting and child behavior issues, women's issues, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, fertility and adoption, attachment, and stress-coping. I have experience working with women, men, children, teens, and families. I am trained in Theraplay, Internal Family Systems, Brainspotting, CBT & other treatment modalities.
My ideal patient is motivated for change, open to processing wounds, and eager to learn skills to improve their lives, within the context of a supportive working relationship. I began working in mental health services in 2001, and began private practice work in 2016.

I use several modalities when working with patients, dependent upon their age, history, and needs. I am trained in Trauma Focused CBT, Theraplay, Brainspotting, and Internal Family Systems Theory. I work with patients to examine beliefs that no longer serve them, and empower patients with tools to manage stress and triggers.
