About Karen
Karen is not currently accepting new clients.
Karen is a Registered Social Worker employed in various health settings for 20+ years. She is an experienced clinician, having worked with clients in numerous roles.
Karen’s passion is to see people establish and restore healthy relationships, and to help people live their lives to the fullest. She does that through a variety of approaches that are research driven and scientifically based. She is eclectic, drawing from years of clinical training, graduate work, and experience. She loves to continue to learn, research, attend training, and absorb resources to enhance her therapeutic skills. Karen is trained in a variety of evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Unified Protocol for Treatment of Emotional Disorders, and PCOMs —this is just an overview! She is constantly looking for new opportunities to learn new skills.
Together you will work on strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your concerns and build meaningful social connections. Her approach is collaborative and accepting. You set the direction and goals of therapy, and together will work towards achieving your goals. Real change starts with you. She is a firm believer in creating lasting change and owning your own victories!
On a personal note, Karen enjoys traveling and experiencing different cultures (with Italy and Vietnam being favourites), spending time with her family, friends, and pets.
