How Karlee works
She helps people name their thoughts and feelings so they can choose changes that fit their life. Karlee pairs that approach with practical tools such as cognitive-behavioral strategies and motivational interviewing. Those methods help people shift unhelpful thinking, build coping skills, and stay motivated toward goals.
She also brings ideas from mindfulness and existential perspectives to support meaning-making during difficult times. Her professional background includes work in addiction services and grief counseling, where she supported adults and adolescents through substance use and loss. That experience shaped her focus on helping people regain a sense of control when life feels chaotic.
Karlee describes therapy as a collaborative process. She encourages clients to explore options and try techniques that feel useful. She aims to help people find steady ground and clearer direction amid change.

How Karlee’s approaches translate to online therapy
Karlee commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness approaches. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental space where the person leads the conversation and the therapist listens and reflects. This approach helps when someone needs to process strong emotions or figure out what matters most.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new perspectives, and practicing behaviors that support change. This is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to focus attention and calm the body. They can reduce reactivity, ease stress, and create small routines that help on difficult days.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Karlee collaborates with each person to decide which approaches match their goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so they feel practical and relevant.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make it easier to keep consistent progress around a busy life.
