About Karen

Karen Sollberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with nine years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, grief, and issues related to identity and relationships.

Her approach begins with listening. She creates a calm setting where people can talk about difficult feelings and everyday pressures. Conversations focus on what the person is facing now and what changes feel most important.

Karen uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage symptoms and build coping skills. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns, and client-centered methods to follow the person’s goals. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are also part of sessions when they fit the client’s needs.

Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Karen helps people set small, clear steps they can test between meetings. She also addresses related problems like sleep disruption, workplace stress, or trouble communicating with others.

People meet Karen to handle a wide range of concerns, from social anxiety and phobia to ADHD or bipolar-related struggles. She encourages realistic changes and teaches tools to manage emotions and daily demands. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. In practice this means the therapist asks open questions and reflects what she hears to help the person clarify goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karen will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose methods and adjust them as needed so sessions fit the client’s needs and pace.

Confirm the therapist’s current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in on a break, or reduce travel time. If a person prefers no video, they can ask about options when they schedule so the format matches practical constraints and comfort.
