Hi there, I'm Karyn!

Together, we will explore strategies and techniques to assist you along your journey to self-discovery and well-being. I will give you the tools, but it will be your commitment to doing the hard work that will yield the results you want to achieve.

My focus

I love supporting people who are navigating Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Grief and Loss, Self-Worth, Eating Disorders, Couples, and LGBTQ+ Issues.

My approach

I follow a Humanistic approach and believe in the mind-body connection—that our chemistry and biology impact our moods, emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. I utilize Solution-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral techniques adapted to your individual needs. I encourage self-care, journaling, worksheets, and periodic homework assignments.
