I am Karen Rich, a licensed clinical social worker with special expertise in trauma, codependency, and relational struggles. I use primarily interpersonal and psychodynamic approaches, with some experiential methods as well. I work a lot with people who are struggling with relationship issues, including ones between parent and child. Typical issues are co-dependency, narcissistic partners, infidelity, jealousy, loss, and the influence of childhood trauma on current relationships.

It is a fundamental rule in nature that creatures are born with skills they need to survive: fish are born swimming, caterpillars have the ability to make their cocoon without instruction, and birds have the instinct to escape their shells. And people, we are born with the ability to ask for help. So why does it become harder and harder to ask for help as we grow up? Emotional responses are as complex and natural as you are, but sometimes in that complexity, they can be difficult to navigate on your own.

Hello, my name is Marie St. Louis. I have spent most of my life helping people be the best versions of themselves, in one capacity or another. As a licensed counselor, I have several years of professional experience helping adults successfully navigate a variety of mental health challenges (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, addiction, loss, relationship conflicts, anger, and other life-controlling issues). I collaborate with clients to develop treatment goals, and explore practical and effective coping strategies to help achieve these goals. This leads to a more robust life that reflects the client's core values.

I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression and stress connected to life's many transitions.
