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.

Life can feel like too much sometimes. Maybe you're carrying anxiety that won’t quiet down. Maybe you're stuck in cycles that leave you feeling exhausted or disconnected. Or maybe you’ve been through things that changed you, and now you’re trying to make sense of who you are and how to move forward. If any of that sounds familiar, I want you to know you’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I’m a licensed therapist in New Mexico and Texas with experience supporting adults who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, trauma, relationship struggles, and self-esteem challenges. My approach is rooted in compassion and collaboration. I meet you where you are, and we work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered practices. That means we’ll explore your inner world, develop skills to manage emotions and thoughts, and focus on what really matters to you...not just what’s “supposed” to matter. You don’t have to perform or prove anything in therapy. You get to show up as you are, even if that feels messy. This is a space where we can unpack what’s been weighing on you and begin building something new. You’re allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to heal. And you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s take that first step together.
