A note from Karen

With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I am a licensed counselor dedicated to providing compassionate and effective therapy. My journey began working as a behavioral interventionist with children, where I gained firsthand experience in how behavioral and emotional challenges affect individuals and their families. This work inspired me to pursue a degree in counseling and being able to work with clients across various life stages, helping them navigate issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship difficulties.
