About Karen
Karen Moore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with nine years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, LGBT concerns, and depression. She also focuses on issues around polyamory and self-love, and on social anxiety and phobia.
Karen sees the person first and treats them as the expert on their life. She listens for strengths and practical patterns that can be used to reduce overwhelm. Sessions are straightforward and grounded in real-life problems, with clear steps for addressing what gets in the way of daily functioning.
Her approach emphasizes collaboration. Karen helps people set concrete goals and tests small changes between sessions. She uses conversational techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and then works with clients to try alternatives that feel doable.
People who struggle with social situations or fear of public interaction will find a focus on manageable exposure and communication skills. For relationship concerns such as non-monogamy, sessions look at boundaries, consent, and clearer communication rather than abstract theory.
Karen welcomes questions about what a session will look like and encourages a brief initial planning conversation. Her style is practical and direct, aimed at helping people build skills they can use outside of sessions. Schedule information and next steps are provided through the online matching and booking process.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Karen uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in straightforward ways that are easy to practice between sessions. Cognitive techniques help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, which is useful for social anxiety and generalized worry. Behavioral approaches emphasize small, graded exposure to feared situations and practical exercises to build confidence.Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist and client review goals and preferences, try an approach, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. This collaborative process helps identify which techniques fit an individual's needs and daily life.
