Hi, I am Karen Memhardt, MA, Med, LPC, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Psychological Examiner. I have master’s degrees in Professional counseling, School counseling, and Psychological Examiner and teaching. I have certification in hypnotherapy, EMDR Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, Psychotherapy, Christian counseling, CCTP Treating Complex Trauma. I have been practicing for fourteen years. My goal is to provide a safe supportive environment where clients can explore issues that prevent them from enjoying life to the fullest. Treatment is approached from a holistic spiritual basis to treat the whole family environment. Psychodynamic psychotherapy and educational counseling principals are integrated with various techniques and therapies to discover the cause of the psychological or behavioral disturbance, incorporating modalities of individual, family, and group counseling therapies to relieve stress and anxiety to a level of comfort desired in your family, work or school environment. Working together, we find the internal and external stressors and eliminate them or find ways to make them manageable for a successful life as measured by you. I use psychodynamic psychotherapy, a form of depth psychology, with the primary focus to reveal the unconscious content of your psyche in an effort to alleviate psychic tension. In this way it is similar to psychoanalysis. It also relies on the interpersonal relationship between client and therapist more than other forms of depth psychology. In terms of approach this form of therapy tends to be more eclectic, taking techniques from a variety of sources, rather than relying on a single system of intervention. It is used in individual psychotherapy, group psychotherapy, family therapy, and to understand and work with institutional and organizational contexts. CBT, Cognitive Behavioral and Neo Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to help you reframe thoughts to more effectively manage feelings and behaviors, and to restructure negative thoughts into a positive thought process to improve self-esteem and self-motivation. Brief therapy is used to address a specific issue in eight to ten sessions. I would ask you to participate in your therapy by asking you to do homework in-between sessions. For example I would ask you the following questions to prepare for our first session: Have you been to a counselor before? A counselor can be a useful tool. I would hope we can build a relationship that you would be able to trust in to discuss your feelings, hopes and goals to help you move forward with a new plan for your life. If you can use me as a sounding board, and use me to help you make some important decisions, this will help you have an easier time with all of your life issues. I am here to help you figure out what is best for you moving forward. What we discuss is confidential. What would you like to discuss with me today? What would you say is the main reason you are wanting to talk today? What are your long term goals for your living arrangement, relationships and your career? Do you have any techniques for helping you to relax? How are you feeling today? For a Brief therapy session I would ask you to imagine you go to sleep tonight, and while you are sleeping, a miracle happens so when you wake up tomorrow morning and everything in your life is exactly how you want your life to be, what would it look like?

Hello, my name is Karen Kavaloski and I am a LPC in New Mexico, North Carolina and in Missouri.

Hi, I’m Tara. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Iowa with 19 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up exactly as you are. You don’t have to have everything figured out, know exactly what to say, or even know where to begin. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. Together, we’ll look at the thoughts, emotions, patterns, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck while also recognizing the strengths you already have. I enjoy helping clients build confidence, develop healthier coping skills, improve relationships, navigate family and parenting challenges, and adjust to difficult seasons or changes in life. I believe meaningful change often begins with greater awareness and small, intentional steps—not perfection. Therapy isn’t about someone telling you how to live your life. It’s about having someone walk alongside you as you gain insight, discover what works for you, and move toward the life you want to create. Reaching out for therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t have to do it perfectly—you just have to begin. I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you take that next step.
