A note from Karen

Hello. My name is Karen McGuffey and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist(LMFT) and a Certified Domestic Abuse Counselor. I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist in Community Mental Health. I work to create a healing space where growth, understanding and change can occur. At times individuals seek therapy because they feel stuck or unsatisfied, or want to explore negative patterns that are holding them back. I also work with individuals who want relief from past trauma. I look forward to working with you and guiding you in meeting your therapeutic goals.
