About Karen
Karen Sollberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with nine years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting pressures, addictions, and work or career concerns. She also supports those facing grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and issues around self-esteem and motivation.
Her approach is straightforward and focused on what helps in daily life. Sessions are conversational and practical. She listens to what is most pressing and then works with clients to set clear, manageable goals. Progress is tracked in small steps so changes feel realistic and steady.
Karen uses a mix of methods including client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness skills. She will draw on solution-focused strategies when a short-term plan is useful, and existential ideas when people are wrestling with meaning or life direction. These approaches are used to address emotions, behavior patterns, and decision-making challenges.
People who come to her often want help sorting parenting stress, improving communication, coping with loss, or managing mood swings. Sessions are practical and aimed at everyday functioning. Karen pays attention to patterns such as attachment struggles, codependency, or control issues and helps people try different ways of responding.
Language of work is English and practice is based in Louisiana. The profile lists a range of concerns including bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, body image, and dissociation, and Karen integrates strategies to support these areas when they are part of a client's story.
How sessions work
Approaches Karen Uses and how online work fits
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters most to the person. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns, and helps clarify priorities. This approach suits people who want someone to listen closely and respond to their specific concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing stress or mood symptoms.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple, moment-to-moment awareness skills. These techniques can reduce reactivity and help with emotion regulation during parenting stress or high-pressure work situations.
Finding which approach fits is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed, treating it as a collaborative process.
The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also allow someone to choose quieter surroundings or skip a commute, depending on what fits their schedule.
