My name is Karen Crawford Simms, and I am a licensed mental health therapist. I welcome clients of all identities, especially those from communities that have faced exclusion or inequity. I specialize in working with adults in transition—particularly those in teaching, caregiving, helping, or service professions—who are navigating relationship issues, parenting challenges, and life or professional changes such as pregnancy, marriage, divorce, menopause, or illness. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed principles, cultural competence, and over 30 years of experience, study, and commitment to authentic healing and wholeness. I attended seminary, and if invited, I will respectfully explore issues of faith as part of therapy. If you’d like to learn more please reach out!
