I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.

Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you. If you are ready to explore your next steps in a collaborative, supportive space, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

You’ve done the work. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, gone to talk therapy before — and somehow you still feel overwhelmed, STUCK or rudderless.

And, you may be SUCCESSFUL, high-functioning on the outside while struggling with holding everything together for everyone else inside ; or even feeling imposter syndrome.

Maybe it's stress and emotional exhaustion, trapped in unexplained patterns, or carrying trauma that still lives in your body no matter how much therapy you've done. Is passing the final exam talking it's toll?

Good news, I specialize in helping people who are tired of just talking about their pain. Whether you are navigating a painful divorce, or carrying deep childhood abuse, or paralyzed by an upcoming licensing exam, I provide a space to finally address and let's CHANGE the cycle.

My Focus is Anxiety: Licensing Exam/test, ADHD, divorce anxiety/trauma, Bipolar I/II, substance disorders, PTSD, trauma, chronic pain and health, nightmares, phobias, childhood sexual/physical abuse, sexual trauma & self identity.

I have EMDR certification work completed because I'm passionate about this work. The work you do today can impact not only your future, but the generations that come after you. We don’t just talk about trauma — we process it at the nervous system level so your brain and body can begin to heal. For EXAM anxiety, we dive quickly into EMDR to process.

I’m Karen Moore, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Social Worker with more than 25 years of combined experience supporting individuals, families, and communities through healing, growth, and meaningful change. My work blends decades of social‐work practice with clinical counseling expertise, giving me a deep understanding of how life experiences, relationships, and environments shape emotional wellness.

My approach is warm, affirming, and empowering. I create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment—and explore the patterns, emotions, and experiences that matter most. I specialize in trauma‐informed care and use evidence‐based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Trauma‐Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Problem‐Solving Therapy. Together, we’ll build practical tools that help you navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life transitions with greater clarity and confidence.

In our first session, we’ll focus on understanding your story, identifying your strengths, and clarifying your goals. My role is to walk alongside you, offering support, insight, and strategies that help you feel grounded, capable, and connected to your own resilience.
