About Karly

Karly Shreders is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 19 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Karly also notes experience with social anxiety and related challenges.

Karly works with adults facing life transitions and ongoing pressures from work and relationships. She helps people talk through painful experiences such as trauma, abandonment, or complicated attachment patterns. She also supports those managing chronic illness, caregiving strain, and body image concerns.

Her approach is collaborative and faith-sensitive, meaning she respects personal beliefs while keeping therapy practical. Sessions emphasize clear coping strategies, communication skills, and building healthier behavior patterns. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and daily problems.

Karly pays attention to how past relationships shape current behavior. That can include issues that come from adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, or avoidant personality patterns. She helps clients recognize those influences and practice different ways of responding.

Many people come for help with anxiety, low mood, or trouble with commitment and codependency. Karly offers support for people navigating midlife concerns, workplace stress, or major health challenges like cancer. The work is focused and practical, with steps clients can try between sessions.

To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

How evidence-based techniques are used in remote sessions

Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive approaches help people notice anxious or negative thoughts and learn alternative ways of thinking. This can ease intense worry and reduce avoidance behavior over time.

Behavioral strategies involve practicing new actions in small steps. That can include graded exposure to feared social situations, role-playing conversations, and skill-building for clearer communication. These methods are often helpful for anxiety, phobias, and relationship patterns.

Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. They adjust plans together as progress is made and new needs arise.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, avoid travel time, and try techniques in real-life situations between meetings. Therapists can also adapt session length and pacing to suit quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth, or brief check-ins when those practical needs matter.
