Hi there, I'm Karen!

I work with children, adolescents, and adults facing mood disorders, trauma, domestic violence, grief, and loss. My focus is creating a safe space where you can address life's challenges and move toward healing.

My focus

I specialize in women's empowerment, cancer survivor recovery, and supporting women of color through relationship issues, new cancer diagnoses, life transitions, parental and caregiver challenges, grief and losses, depression, anxiety, and self-care struggles.

My approach

I use cognitive-behavioral therapy with mindfulness and a humanistic client-centered style. I support clients with Autism Spectrum disorders and work with parents on managing challenging behaviors. I'm committed to creating a safe place free from ableism, transphobia, and homophobia.
