Karen is very patient and thoughtful. It is clear she has a great deal of experience. She knows when to listen and when to speak.

Karen is awesome, I really really appreciate her years of experience and ideas. This is my first experience seeing a counselor (it's been a few months now) and it's been a positive one!
