About Karen
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 38 years of experience, I've seen how childhood trauma can shape the ways we learn to survive. The coping strategies that once protected us often continue long after the danger has passed, evolving into depression, anxiety, codependency, unhealthy relationship patterns, difficulties at work, substance misuse, or other compulsive behaviors that quietly diminish our ability to express our needs and live authentically. While I work with many people whose lives have been affected by these patterns, I am not an addiction specialist. I do not provide treatment for individuals who are actively using substances and seeking recovery from addiction. If that is your primary need, I will gladly help you find a provider who specializes in that area. When you begin therapy with me, I believe you'll find someone who listens carefully, not only to your words but also to the emotions, themes, and patterns that may be operating just beneath your awareness. My style is compassionate, honest, and practical. Humor often finds its way into our work together, along with the occasional reference to music, books, sitcoms, or movies. I have a particular fondness for fantasy and science fiction, and every now and then those worlds provide surprisingly good metaphors for our own. My work is grounded in the belief that healing begins when we feel truly seen. Together, we'll explore how old survival strategies may no longer be serving you and discover new ways of relating to yourself and the people around you. My goal isn't to tell you who you should become. It's to help you uncover who you've been all along, beneath the burdens you've carried. I hope to help you find what you've been missing. You bring the flashlight. I'll bring the map. Together, we'll discover the path forward. Because I believe genuine connection is an essential part of the healing process, I provide video sessions only. I want us to see one another's expressions, hear the subtle changes in one another's voices, and create the kind of therapeutic relationship that is difficult to achieve through audio alone. If this sounds like the kind of journey you're ready to begin, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Let's get started, shall we? Read more Show less
