Offers Online Sessions

Female

Hello. I’m Karen and I'm so glad you're here. I graduated from the University of Florida’s Counselor Education Program in 1994, and have been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for nearly 25 years. My background is in treating anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and medical trauma. These issues are often attached to personal loss/trauma, life transitions, or current and past relationship struggles.

My counseling style is empathic, interactive, and solution-focused. You and your strengths are the focus of treatment. Solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapies have an impact across many situations because they offer guidance and tools for real life. Because of this, I use these approaches, combined with mindfulness, often. Focusing on how thoughts impact emotions and implementing steps towards change means that counseling does not generally need to be long-term. Effective therapy sends people out with tools and strategies to use immediately and into the future.

Therapy is not about becoming “less anxious, not lonely, or not depressed.” It’s about becoming happy, content, engaged, and connected. Think of counseling as a road map or a guide. It’s a tool to plan the best route towards your goals. Along the way, you get to decide the pace, detours, and destination…but there is lots of help along the way with direction, re-fueling, and taking in the scenery. If you have not utilized counseling in the past, please know that it is simply a safe place to tell your story and make the changes that you choose. If you have taken part in counseling before, welcome back. Adjustments, adaptations, and growth are lifelong pursuits.

I am already looking forward to meeting you and am excited about the road ahead.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
