Hi there, I'm Karen!

Feeling stuck or overwhelmed. You're not alone. I help clients navigate depression, anxiety, self-doubt, and life challenges with curiosity and compassion. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, connected -to yourself and the life you want to create.

My focus

Have you had issues with depression, anxiety, and life stressors? I will work with you to reduce depression and control anxiety. If you have problems with self-doubt. I'll help you with building self-esteem and building coping skills. I will work with you to create a plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable.

My approach

I use cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. My approach is practical and collaborative, giving you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Together, we will identify challenges and work on strategies to help you move forward with confidence.
