Karen has been instrumental and so helpful dealing with life day-to -day. Her techniques and tools have been very useful when needing to keep calm and focus.

Reviewed December 2023

I've been seeing Karen for 3 years and it has changed my life for the better. I tried multiple therapists before her but none of them worked out. She really understands what I'm going through and always has great advice. Her memory is impeccable, she remembers everything and during our appointment I feel very heard and listen to. I'm grateful for the online meetings as I think I would not go every week if I had to go into an office to see her.

More about Karen

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been in practice over 10 years providing individual, couples, and group therapy. I came to this profession a little later in life than many. This has granted me the opportunity to pull from my life experiences in being able to relate to my clients on a very personal level. I hope to provide not only a sense of support but a pathway to exploring your deeper self while addressing both short term and long term needs and goals.

My experience with critically ill and hospice clients has given me a passion to work with people who are grieving. Grief encompasses the loss of those we love and also the loss of unfulfilled dreams and desires. Grief is something that we will all come into contact with at some point in our life experience. I hope to be a support and companion in assisting my grieving clients through these difficult times.

I have experience with ages from young children to elderly. I have worked in settings that include institutional (i.e. hospitals) to homebound clients. I am not a fan of labels, either diagnostic or social. I prefer to understand my clients as individuals. However, there are times where those labels do help us to understand the symptoms and create an effective treatment plan.

I look forward to working with you on your life journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I've been seeing Karen for over 3 years. She has made a huge difference in my mental health. I've had therapists in the past but Karen is on another level. Her memory is impeccable, she remembers things that I told her months or even years ago and she'll correlate these behaviors for me which explains things in a way that helps me deal with everyday life. She also shares many resources for dealing w/ anxiety that the container method or tapping, etc. I love that I get to have virtual visits. I feel it's this reason that I've continued with therapy, for this long, this time around. Virtual visits make it possible for me to stay committed to my therapy and mental health plan.

Karen is absolutely amazing. I was nervous to start therapy, and by 2 minutes into the first sessions, I was completely comfortable. She is so good at listening and helping me to stop spiraling when things feel out of control. I can't recommend her highly enough.

My conversations with Karen are what talking to both a lifelong friend and caring mother should feel like. Her warm personality allowed her to gain my trust almost immediately. I always look forward to our sessions and feel confident sharing my thoughts in the space she’s created. I know that it can be tough to open up and understand what you’re feeling, but Karen will guide you through the process in the kindest way possible. She’s awesome!
