Are you ready for healing and self-discovery? "I'm" Dr. Karen Allen, a licensed therapist with over two decades of experience dedicated to helping adolescent girls and women navigate life's challenges. Whether you're dealing with relationship issues, self-esteem challenges, transitioning in work and career, or making difficult life decisions, I"m here to help. My expertise also includes addressing depression, anxiety, grief, loss, trauma, sexual abuse, and substance abuse.
I use cognitive behavior therapy and an eclectic approach tailored to meet your unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your feelings, uncover your strengths, and find your path to wholeness.
Are you facing issues that seem insurmountable? Do you feel like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders? Perhaps you are even questioning your own self-worth. You no longer have to hold an anchor in that dysfunctional space. I am here. Let's journey together on your road of healing and self discovery.
