About Karen

Karen Gravel, LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor), helps clients find relief from mental health and situational challenges while developing solutions tailored to their lives. With eight years of clinical experience, she centers her work on identifying and shifting patterns of thought and behavior that can become automatic and unhelpful. Many people carry deep beliefs about their worth and potential that shape how they respond to stress, relate to others, and pursue goals; Karen supports clients in exploring those beliefs and building new perspectives that foster growth and change.

Her practice draws on a blend of evidence-based approaches and a collaborative stance, partnering with each person to create outcomes that reflect individual needs and values. Karen has worked in community mental health, crisis settings, and international and military contexts, gaining experience helping with anxiety, depression, stress, substance dependence, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and cultural adjustment. She views each client as a resilient, active participant in shaping their life and uses practical strategies to address issues such as trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, career concerns, bipolar and mood disorders, and problems with communication and attachment.

Approaches for Online Support and Growth

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. The Gottman Method is a structured approach to relationship work that teaches communication skills, conflict management, and ways to rebuild connection for couples facing trust or intimacy challenges. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, person-centered technique that helps people explore and strengthen their own reasons for change, often used for substance dependence, ambivalence about life changes, and setting personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Karen works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She integrates techniques when appropriate so that therapy aligns with each client's values and strengths.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and conversations can continue through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support clients who are geographically distant including international clients, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not feasible. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to provide focused, effective support tailored to each person's situation.
