Hi there, I'm Karen!
My mission is to facilitate a therapeutic environment that is client-focused and through a trauma-informed lens. I encourage, support, and promote client self-determination and autonomy in their journey of healing and growth.
My focus
I work with diverse client populations, including children, adolescents, and adults facing depression, anxiety, and trauma during life transitions.
My approach
A collaborative approach/trauma-informed care, and client-focused, emphasizing meeting clients where they are at and working on growing clients' toolbox/skills to face life’s challenges through resiliency.
