About Karen

Karen Sollberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana. She brings nine years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and depression while building confidence and motivation.

She aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable. Sessions emphasize an open atmosphere where people can talk about feelings and thoughts without judgment. The focus is on practical steps that can help someone feel steadier day to day.

In the therapy room she draws on approaches such as client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and to develop coping skills. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies are used for short-term goals and to reduce immediate distress.

Karen also supports people facing grief, trauma, addiction concerns, caregiving strain, codependency, and challenges related to identity and relationships. She takes common-sense steps to help people sort priorities, set boundaries, and rebuild routines after big life changes.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Clients can expect a calm, listening presence combined with tools to practice between sessions. She encourages gradual progress and celebrates practical gains along the way.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathic listening and helping people feel heard; online sessions preserve that focus by making room for the client's story and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and homework, which can be shared and reviewed across sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and calm the mind, useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay relevant and goal-oriented.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare, or travel. It also allows the use of worksheets, guided exercises, and between-session tasks that support CBT and mindfulness work without requiring additional travel.
