Find a licensed online therapist in Breckenridge, TX

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

I am a passionate and hopeful Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas who loves to help facilitate change. For 10 years, I have worked with various populations from individual and families, women and children that survived domestic violence, adolescents at risk and those with substance use issues. One treatment approach that I believe in whole heartedly is Cognitive Behavior Therapy, being that our actions are rooted in what and how we think. It is not until a person restructures their thoughts that their actions change. I also think that Positive Psychology is vital to success. Most people seek therapists because there is a problem. I find it beneficial to focus on successes and strengths to get motivated to conquer life's challenges. I can help you identify ways to navigate through this journey of life. The clients who I find to be the best fit for my services are those who meet the following criteria: 1. They are READY & MOTIVATED to change: My ideal clients are those who have recognized the need for change and are highly motivated to take action. They have already taken the first step by seeking my assistance, and they are eager to get started on their journey towards personal growth and development. 2. They INVEST their TIME & RESOURCES in themselves: My clients are committed to investing their time, energy, and resources in their own personal development. They understand that achieving their goals requires effort and dedication, and they are willing to put in the work required to succeed. 3. They DESIRE to move from surviving to THRIVING: My clients have a clear vision of where they want to be and are determined to reach their full potential. They are not satisfied with simply getting by, but instead, they strive to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. 4. They have a GROWTH MINDSET: My clients have a mindset that is focused on growth and improvement. They are not afraid of challenges or setbacks, but instead, they see them as opportunities to learn and grow. They are open to feedback and are willing to make changes to their approach in order to achieve their goals.

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.

You may find that this is a valuable way of getting a new perspective of yourself, or a way of motivating to do something different, or make changes that you never thought you could make with feelings of anxiety or depression. You want to feel better about yourself. I love making life easier for individuals of all ages and have been achieving that gratifying result for 19 years through the good graces of a grant-based agency, specializing in the care for victims of crimes. Working with the full range of life experiences for individuals, families, couples, adolescents, and children is needed in these times of change and uncertainty more than ever when life’s path does not seem so clear. I graduated in 1994 with a Psychology degree in 1994 from University of Houston, Central Campus. After working for a year in a half as a psychiatric technician in a psychiatric hospital, the desire to further my education became an imperative and I received my Masters in Counseling from the University of Houston, Clearlake in 2003, all the while gaining actual on-the-job personal experience working as a school counselor. If you like upbeat and positive dispositions, the cheerful attitude alone could give you a hopeful outlook. If you would like a committed therapist who will care about you, listen patiently while give you space to tell your story, then I may just be the one you are looking for. The areas of my expertise include relationship losses, intimacy issues, adjustment disorders, job related stress, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, depression and anxiety, family conflict, grief and loss, children behavioral issues, mood disorders, anger management, substance abuse, and helping victims of crime. As an example of my therapy techniques, for anger management, I incorporate a three-fold approach. Walk away or brush it off, apologize, or quit getting mad about the same things you get mad about. Your success does not happen overnight. It may take many weeks of practice, but in the end, you will get very good in your responses to anger, becoming skilled in assertive methods for subduing anger and relieving any stress. Working together to gather your history, understand your present problem, and getting to know your value system and the priorities you have in dealing with your issues is key to therapy. Sometimes a client just needs to be empowered with good listening skills from a therapist or receive positive reinforcement, maybe just be understood and wanting their feelings validated. Whichever approach we decide upon, all make our relationship worthwhile for me to walk the journey of life with a person, to unlock doors of awareness and understanding, help them walk through to reach rewards of a fuller life, enrich themselves to feel more alive, enjoy this world free of pain or suffering.
