My name is Karen Tremblay, I am a licensed clinical social worker. I believe in providing goal-directed collaborative therapy focusing on change as constant and certain. You are the expert of your life experiences and have the resources and strengths to overcome barriers to your wellness. I assist clients with learning skills that assist with managing and tolerating challenging and uncomfortable situations, identifying and developing achievable goals, and improving and enhancing personal resilience. I work with a variety of individuals providing telehealth services addressing a multitude of issues including but not limited to processing trauma, anxiety, stress, domestic inequality, and perfectionistic and relentless inner critic patterns. I generally check messages after 6:00 p.m., during the week. I will respond as quickly as I can. I am unable to schedule sessions during the day except for weekends. I do appreciate your patience as I may be tending to other clients or professional/personal responsibilities. I look forward to collaborating with you.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will review the framework of our collaborative work, get to know one another and answer questions you have about therapy. Typically, our first session is spent discussing the framework of therapy, subsequent sessions are focused on addressing what brings you to therapy and agreeing on strategies to address your presenting problems.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

As an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I use evidenced proven practices that can be taught, practiced and implemented in your daily living skills. My goal is to assist you in mastering skills and shifts in thinking necessary to enhance happiness, self-sufficiency and overall improved wellness.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Incorporating humor, humility, empathy combined with my experiential and educational knowledge is empowering and motivating to my clients. I believe support, acceptance and clear communication are essential in making longstanding life changes.
