Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It is often used to address anxiety, stress, and challenges related to motivation and life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, which can be especially useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and impulsivity. Client-Centered Therapy creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build self-awareness and self-acceptance, making it helpful for issues like self-esteem, relationship patterns, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Karen works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time so care remains relevant and effective. Clients are invited to shape the work and to give feedback about what helps.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people, including easier scheduling, reduced travel time, and the ability to meet from home or another convenient location. Karen provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexible options that accommodate different routines and communication styles, helping therapy fit into a client’s life without unnecessary barriers.
