I work with three primary groups: families dealing with estrangement or broken relationships, couples seeking to improve communication and rebuild trust, and individuals navigating stress, anxiety, and the need for better emotional structure. Whether you're a parent, adult child, partner, or individual looking for support, I tailor my approach to your specific situation.

While therapy often focuses on processing past trauma and emotional healing, coaching is more action-oriented and future-focused. As a Clini-Coach® with 30+ years of therapy experience, I bring the best of both worlds: deep psychological understanding combined with practical strategies and goal-setting. We'll work together to create concrete steps forward and build the relationships and life structure you want.

You can expect compassionate, skilled guidance tailored to your unique needs. We'll start with a free consultation to clarify your goals, then create a customized coaching plan. Through regular sessions, you'll gain practical tools, improved communication skills, clearer boundaries, and greater emotional steadiness. My approach combines clinical expertise with real-world strategies that create lasting change.

You can book a session directly through the website by visiting the "Book a Session" page or by contacting Karen via the contact form provided on the site. Initial consultations are available to discuss your specific coaching needs.

Sessions are typically conducted via video call for convenience and comfort. We'll meet regularly (frequency depends on your needs and goals), and each session focuses on practical progress toward your objectives. I provide tools, strategies, and support between sessions so you can continue growing. Whether you're working individually, as a couple, or involving family members, I'll create a structure that works for your situation.

The duration of coaching depends on several factors, including the complexity of the family issues and the goals of coaching. Karen works collaboratively with clients to determine the appropriate length of coaching.

Karen offers various resources and support between sessions, including follow-up emails, recommended readings, and exercises that clients can work on to facilitate their journey towards individual mental health and family reconciliation and restructuring.

Pricing details for individual and family sessions, as well as packages for multiple sessions, can be found on the website or provided upon request during your initial consultation.
