More about Karen Wind, LPC

My name is Karen Wind. I have been a licensed professional counselor (LPC) for almost 19 years. I am also a NCC - National Certified Counselor and a Clinically Certified Sex Offender Treatment Specialist. I believe in a person-centered, solution-focused approach to counseling. I see myself as a guide on a path to greater self-discovery. The client determines what they want to work on. My approach I see life as a journey. Along the way, we experience a wide variety of circumstances. These shape the way we view the world and how we respond to daily life. Sometimes we get stuck in old patterns that no longer serve us optimally. My approach to therapy is to ferret out these outdated patterns and beliefs and help replace them with more productive ways of thinking and being. Each person is unique so I employ a variety of treatment modalities depending on the individual. They include Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Brief Solution Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. My focus I have worked with a wide variety of presenting issues including depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, life transitions, history of abuse, marital challenges, parenting concerns, and loneliness. My communication style I try to match my client's communication style as I recognize that communication takes place in how an individual interprets a message and not always how it is intended. When required I can and will be direct. I also will use humor at times to illustrate a situation. Most clients find me caring and empathetic. I see my role as an agent of change. I applaud clients willing to invest in themselves by doing the sometimes hard work needed. My journey to mental healthcare This is a second career for me. I went back to school in my early 50's to study Sport & Exercise Psychology. My children participated in youth sports and I saw too many dysfunctional coaches and parents.
