About Karen
Karen Sollberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with nine years of counseling experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Karen also supports clients dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and codependency-related patterns.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She listens first and helps people name what feels most urgent. Sessions involve talking through thoughts and feelings, identifying small changes, and practicing new ways of coping that can be used between meetings.
Karen draws from client-centered work to prioritize the person's perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses. Mindfulness exercises and brief solution-focused strategies are woven in when they fit the person's goals.
People who prefer clear steps and practical tools tend to do well with her style. She can help with setting limits, managing overwhelming emotions, and rebuilding confidence after painful experiences. Conversations are direct and down-to-earth, with attention to what can be tried next.
Her Louisiana license is listed as LPC. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled through the service's online flow.
How sessions work
How her approaches fit into online work
Client-centered work focuses on the person's own experience and goals. In practice this means sessions begin by listening closely, then shaping the conversation around what the client says matters most. This helps with problems like low self-esteem, relationship patterns, and grief.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short, practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. People use CBT to manage anxiety, depressive thinking, and unhelpful coping habits related to codependency.
Mindfulness techniques train attention to the present moment and simple breathing or noticing practices. These can reduce overwhelm and make it easier to choose a different response when emotions spike.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. Karen will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what feels realistic to practice between sessions. The plan can change as progress and needs evolve.
The specific session formats offered are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what length and rhythm of sessions would work best for everyday life.
