I just finished up about eight months of therapy with Karen, and I cannot recommend her any more highly. She is kind, caring, real, funny, non-judgmental, understanding... the list goes on, but most of all, she is exactly the kind of therapist I needed. I started working with Karen to address issues with self esteem. I felt that I was living to please other people, and I did not like myself much at all. She helped me to understand who I was, what I valued, what I wanted to bring to the world, and who I wanted to be inside of it. She helped me realize that I have value, and how to respect, acknowledge, and nurture that value (and, by extension, myself). My confidence in my ability to handle new situations has increased exponentially. She helped me navigate friendships, understand my relationships with my family, move away from home, and transition into a new job. I am a better family member, colleague, friend to others, and friend to myself because I have worked with her. If you are thinking about starting therapy with Karen, do it! I cannot thank her enough - she has changed my life :)

Karen has been a big help to me over the last few months. She has helped me sort out a lot of issues that are happening simultaneously, so I can break things down into smaller pieces that are easier to handle. I feel like I still have a lot of sorting out to do, but I’m confident that by continuing to talk things through with Karen, things are going to continue to improve. I think back to where I was when I first started with Karen, and realize that there were a few really pivotal things she said or asked me that really changed my approach for the better.
