My Approach to Helping

Hi, I am Karen Wister Kearns, LPC. I have been a certified and licensed therapist for many years. My primary objective is to help my clients help themselves through difficult times in their lives. Early on it became apparent that using pets with clients helped break barriers and reduced stress. This helped clients feel more comfortable entering into a counseling relationship.
TeleMental Health allows my clients to bring their pet if they wish to counseling with them via video conferencing.
The loss of a pet may be a traumatic experience and counseling also helps clients deal with the grieving process after such a traumatic loss.
TeleMental Health opens the door to many clients, ones who are homebound, disabled, suffering chronic pain, living a distance from a counseling office or those with busy schedules that do not have time to come to an office. They can enjoy the convenience of TeleMental Health from home. I am licensed in Arizona and Pennsylvania and South Carolina and Board Certified in TeleMental Health and Board Certified as a Geriatric Counselor. I can only serve clients in states in which I am licensed.

More Info About My Practice

My clients are invited to bring their pet to their counseling sessions if they wish.Sometimes pets helps break barriers because your pet may provide support necessary to enhance your counseling experience and hopefully reduce anxiety and stress. Pets are optional.
