About Karen

Karen House is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 25 years of experience. She welcomes people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or worn down and aims to leave each session with practical steps to try. Karen keeps a down-to-earth, problem-solving style that focuses on tools clients can use between meetings.

Her approach mixes listening with clear strategies. Sessions build on what came before so progress is steady and specific. Karen emphasizes active participation - there will be homework and real-world practice to help new skills take hold.

Karen has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also helps with sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and challenges related to family and parenting. Additional areas she addresses include attachment, codependency, communication and control issues, and recovery from domestic violence or separation.

She uses a range of therapy methods to match the problem at hand. That can include client-centered work that prioritizes a person’s goals, cognitive behavioral techniques to change patterns of thinking and behavior, emotionally-focused ways of reconnecting feelings with needs, and EMDR for processing traumatic memories.

Sessions are offered in English and Karen accepts international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step links the person to available times. Payment uses a cancellable subscription model that varies with location and therapist availability.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual's goals and experience. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what is heard, and helps the person steer their own change. This approach supports people who need a safe space to sort through emotions and make decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses clear techniques to test and change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and patterns like codependency.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life. It is often applied when trauma or abuse is part of the history and the person wants to reduce the intensity of painful memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, life circumstances, and preferences. Together they choose or blend methods to fit the issue and pace the work accordingly.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to sustain regular meetings. Practical benefits include easier scheduling around work, the ability to meet from different locations, and fewer disruptions for people who travel. Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available options before booking. The therapist and client will decide what works best for session length and rhythm as they begin.
