- Anxiety
- Depression

Each client’s journey is unique, and Karen tailors her approach to suit their specific needs. She strives to help individuals develop the tools and insights they need to navigate life’s complexities with confidence and clarity. Whether working with children, adolescents, adults, or families, Karen’s goal is to foster resilience, enhance self-awareness, and support meaningful, lasting change. It is a privilege for Karen to accompany individuals on their path to emotional well-being, personal growth, and a brighter future.
