Hello, my name is Karen Kavaloski and I am a LPC in New Mexico, North Carolina and in Missouri. I was originally licensed as a counselor in 2009 while working in Arizona by the State of North Carolina after making a career change from a almost 30 year history in nursing. My passion since I was a young adult was counseling and it took me almost 30 years to achieve my goal of becoming a counselor. I was a Marine wife for almost 30 years and have traveled allot, I have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. My youngest, a son, and one of my grandchildren are severely autistic so I can identify with the stress and struggles some families have with managing special needs within their family. I am also a cancer survivor. I believe we all have an ability to heal the body, mind and soul and I consciously strive daily to be an active participant in my life and support and encourage others to do the same. My education beyond my nursing and counseling includes a Masters in Business Administration and a Doctorate in (Christian) Ministries. I have worked primarily over this past 17 years with trauma and substance abuse in the adult population with about 3 years working with the teenage population in these areas. I also have worked about 5 years total with prison reentry and counseling individuals and families with histories of incarceration in state and federal prison. I believe in working with individuals and families to achieve their highest goals. I believe the client is the expert in his/her own life and I fully encourage one to strive to work towards building a strong foundation within themselves and their families whatever that looks like to them, to that end I use focused solution therapy, internal systems therapy, mindfulness/compassion therapy, cognitive and cognitive behavioral, dialectical therapy, emotional freedom techniques and/or neurolinguistic techniques . I am also the author and publisher self help books under my Sacred Self Workbook Series Outside my therapy practice, I spend my leisure time reading. meditation/praying and gardening. I do light exercise daily.

Hello and welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Brian and I applaud you for beginning this journey we call therapy. Whether you’re new to the experience or you’ve been in therapy before, I am here to help, support and be with you along your journey to wellness and wholeness. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have engaged individuals, teens and couples in a variety of settings addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, interpersonal conflict as well as professional and vocational issues. I have also helped clients help themselves improve their self-esteem, coping skills, moods, adjust to major life changes as well as improve problem-solving and decision-making skills. I have a Master’s in Social Work from the Silberman School of Social Work in Manhattan and over 25 years of professional experience. Over the years I have used and custom created many therapeutic approaches, techniques and helped improve clients’ perspectives to help them move forward. Clients are encouraged to actively participate in the therapy process by setting their own goals and evaluating progress towards achieving them. Finally, I am concerned about all aspects of a client’s life including your physical, mental and spiritual health and well-being. I am informal, transparent, and very open; ask me anything! Nothing is “off-limits” during good therapy, and I encourage clients to bring any issues/concerns they may have to the sessions. I value being a very safe, accepting haven for my clients. I see individuals over 18 y/o and couples. Thank you for allowing me to share my background with you. Here are a few reviews of my work from current individual clients: "Having worked with Brian for over a year now, I can say confidently that his approach to therapy is extremely effective. He is a master at guiding you to a better understanding of yourself - he allows you to form your own conclusions, while offering his own insight along the way, which is invaluable. If you’re looking to connect better with yourself, and truly understand WHY you are how you are, I cannot recommend him enough." " I have had the privilege of working with Brian as my therapist, and I can say without hesitation that his support has been deeply impactful in my life. He is incredibly insightful and thoughtful in his approach, always meeting me with patience, respect, and a sincere desire to understand my perspective. Brian creates a space that feels genuinely safe—never judgmental, always grounded in kindness and open-mindedness. His ability to balance professional guidance with compassionate listening has helped me make meaningful progress in how I view myself and the world around me. I am truly grateful for the work we’ve done together and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a therapist who brings wisdom, integrity, and heart to their practice." I have weekday early morning (6:00!) and daytime hours to meet your needs and look forward to working with you!

My name is "Ms. Tam" or "Ms. Hicks" and I am here to help. I am a licensed mental health professional and I will be able to partner with you on this journey. I am pleased you have selected me as your therapist. I have a strong client base for issues with anxiety, depression, and trauma. The first session dives deep into what will scratch the surface and open certain doors to rooms and places the client wants and needs to explore; or not. I recommend minimum 3 sessions to build upon your toolbox to help manage your symptoms. I have learned that I am not for everyone and everyone is not for me. I am a whole vibe professionally speaking. Therapy is a journey one in which the client is in the drivers seat and the therapist is in the passenger seat, shotgun! The client that wants to get to the root of the pain, hurt, awkwardness, craziness, sadness, the list goes on is a great match with Ms. Tam. The client that also pulls from hope, spirit, experience, the unknown is a match with me. Its helpful for the client to remain open throughout at least 3-6 sessions after the first assessment/session in order to fully rate symptom change. If you are looking for a diverse and inclusive minded therapist, with years of experience in life, education, social services, and mental health services consider myself. I will try to help you. All counseling sessions will be treated with strict confidentiality and is protected by state and federal laws.

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.
