Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Don’t know what Id do without her
Being a young teenage girl I never felt understood by my therapists, but i cant say the same about her! She provides an extremely laid back, comforting, judgment free environment. I never felt held back to say something to her. She has given me coping tools and provided a listening ear. I would recommend to anyone, but especially younger teens/young adults who struggle with anxiety or depression. She also can take a life coach approach and give advice on life’s stressors, forever great full for her ??

I expected a competent therapist but just imagine my surprise when she opened her mouth and out flowed my native Dutch language fluently.!! Karen is a genius when it comes to deconstructing and analyzing relationships, and I was able to come to a healthy resolution. hat she is truly listening. Karen says that she will help us along our healing journey, and I believe her completely. My life is better. Thank you.

As a patient who comes from a multicultural background, Karen had no problem understanding the issues I was going through and gave great advice on how to face these challenges. Karen has helped me address my issues with anxiety and loneliness. She has helped me become motivated in working towards my goals in life.

I personally think karen is empathetic, patient and generally understanding. I haven’t experienced any crossing of boundaries with her, any time I’ve needed time ,space or otherwise she’s been versatile in each situation. I’ve had therapist before where I felt it was more of just them listening than giving a response and though that was fine at that time having Karen who listens and responds in various helpful ways with much respected insight has been great for me it has helped me be able to see things clearly put things in perspective and when a insecure sometimes that confirmation that I need —definitely overall supportive and the honesty is always appreciated . So far no complaints.

I have been seeing Karen for the last 2 years. I'm a black man with a disability and having someone who is biracial and open minded to the disability experience has been life changing for me. She always thinks about creating an accessible space for me with considerations of my wheelchair. She always considers how race and race based issues play into mental health. She can understand how intersectionality between the two work as well. Her newer space is being built with accessibility for people with disabilities in mind. She's helped confront my fears and get closer to a better me in an invaluable way. Thank you Karen!

I found Karen through my insurance website at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. I had just found out I was pregnant with my second child and I was balancing the shift of working from home, going through a difficult first trimester, taking care of my toddler, and trying to keep our family distanced, healthy, and safe. The angst of it all was more than I was able to handle at the time. When I called Karen for the first time, she picked up the call and we began our work together immediately. She was relatable, flexible, warm, and understanding from the first moment we spoke. During our time working together, she has helped me navigate through the pandemic, my pregnancy (and complications that came with it), my postpartum mental health, and more. She was willing to try different modalities to support me until we found the one(s) that really worked, to the point where I feel like I have the tools to take care of myself and my family.

I have been seeing Karen for the past two years and she is one of the best professionals I have come across! She is a conscientious, attentive, compassionate and well trained professional who goes above and beyond her job by taking a personal investment is her patients to the level that I felt as though she truly cares about me as a person as well as a patient. To add to her high levels of empathy, she is highly skilled and brings many modalities to her work. She is trained in both DBT, EFT, and EMDR as well as does Reiki and energy work; all services I have benefited from and have helped me in developing into a happier and healthier person. Overall, I am so glad that I found her as the quality of my life and personal and professional choices have become more positive through her support. I highly recommend her as a therapist!

Karen has been super helpful and supportive from the moment I met her. She truly cares about the people she works with and her passion shows. She is always a text or call away in between sessions which I really appreciate since things come up. She has helped me tremendously with my personal issues. She has even gone above and beyond to provide services for my significant other as well. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a genuine, trustworthy and constructive therapist!

Karen is by far the most supportive therapist I have ever worked with. She is kind, patient, knowledgable and so incredibly vigilant. I cannot say enough about how she has helped me and supported my journey through this mess I call a mind. I highly recommend Karen. She will do whatever is necessary to support your mental health.

I must say Karen has truly changed my life! After much suffering. I'm praticing and living generally an anxiety free life without using medication. I thought this would never happen, but therapy is something I now recommend to everyone around me. Karen is not only friendly, but also relatable to talk with. In a way that doesn't feel like the other stereotypical therapist I’ve seen in the past. She just gets it and from a place of no judgements. Thankful and eternally grateful.
