My Approach to Therapy
Therapy with me is an accepting, nonjudgmental space and a collaborative process.
I never take for granted the role I serve in supporting others through their therapy process. My task as your therapist is to create a safe space for you to do some uncomfortable work, because let’s face it: change and growth are uncomfortable. And therapy is work. But we will always go at your pace, and never with an expectation that you have to share more than you want to or are ready to share.
In therapy with me, you’ll find you can say the things you need to say without a filter, needing to “stay on track,” or fear of judgment. My role is to hold space for whatever is it you want to bring into therapy, and to help you decide where and how we focus on these topics in order for you to develop new and deeper insights, change long-held patterns, and feel like you’re moving in the direction you want and need to be in life.
Fees for Karen's services are:
$175 for 50-minute sessions
$200 for Couple or Family Sessions
Cancellation policy: You will be charged the full fee for cancelled or rescheduled sessions with less than 24 hours’ notice, as well as in the event of a no-show. Exceptions for unavoidable conflict or emergencies, under which we can make other arrangements to avoid the cancellation fee.
When you enter into therapy with us, we commit to you, and we ask you to be equally invested.
We reserve an appointment time just for you. We carefully limit how many clients we choose to work with at any given time, which ultimately allows us to serve you best by not burning out and therefore being able to be present for you. Outside of working hours, we’re working hard to continue learning inclusive and effective therapeutic practices to best support your therapeutic goals.
You’re tired of being your own worst enemy, second-guessing yourself and your relationships, and simultaneously overextending yourself while making yourself and your needs small with everyone.
You’re burnt out, disillusioned, and discouraged after trying to hold on to hope that tomorrow will be different, yet still falling into the same patterns over and over again. You have a sense that you can have a life with more confidence, stability, and connected and fulfilling relationships, and are thinking it’s time you get some support...
This is a space for you.
...Karen Anderson was the best thing to happen to my family since my kids were born...my marriage was saved and my wife and I found love again. I recommend anyone with family issues. You will receive great information and be more knowledgeable in your relationship" A.C
Morgan James, NY
C... and I have been clients of Karen for the past four years and have been so happy with the results that we have recommended her many times to other couples. Karen has taught us to speak a common language so that we can actually communicate without stress and drama. I firmly believe that if we had not received couples therapy from Karen we would not be a happily married couple today.
I began seeing Karen for my anxiety issues and panic attacks initially. The therapy was open, casual and she was inviting and non-judgmental. Throughout 6 months we worked through my anxiety with both traditional therapy, hypnosis, and EMDR. By the end of 6 months my anxiety had tremendously improved. I felt so satisfied with Karen and he r work that I began seeing her to work on my relationship. My fiancé an d I saw her to help us with communication. The tools she gave us were extremely helpful and she is an extremely knowledgeable resource. I would recommend Karen Anderson to anyone struggling with anxiety or any type of emotional problem as well as for anyone seeking relationship counseling. Karen is truly a phenomenal person and my life has not been the same since working with her!
