Karlee has nine years of counseling experience and a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from California University of Pennsylvania.
Background and approach
Early in her career she worked in the addictions field, supporting adults and adolescents through substance use challenges and the impact of family substance use. That background informs how she looks at coping and relapse prevention today. Over time she shifted toward grief work and helping people adjust to major life changes.
She sees many concerns as connected by the experience of change. That insight guides her work when people face loss, caregiving strain, career transitions, or questions about identity and purpose. Her sessions use a person-centered approach that emphasizes empathy, honesty, and collaboration.
Karlee pairs that with cognitive-behavioral techniques to help reframe unhelpful thoughts and motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment to change. Mindfulness and existential ideas also shape conversations about meaning, values, and daily routines. In practical terms she helps clients notice patterns, set small goals, and try new strategies between sessions.
Her aim is to help people build sustainable coping skills and clearer direction while respecting each person’s pace and priorities.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a trusting, nonjudgmental conversation where the person’s goals lead the work. It helps when someone needs acceptance and practical guidance to sort through feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns where step-by-step tools can make a difference.
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what they want to change and build motivation to take small steps. It pairs well with other approaches when someone is weighing options or feeling stuck.
Karlee will collaborate with each person to find which approaches fit best for their goals, values, and daily life. Together they review what seems to help, try techniques, and adjust the plan as needed so work remains practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls work well for conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can fit into a shorter break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and fit therapy into a busy schedule.
