Life is full of hills and valleys. There are times when we reach a place in our life and realize that it's just not ok getting through the day. Our minds are full of chatter (often not the kindest comments), our bodies lack sleep, and getting through the day has been a challenge. No matter what you are feeling, or what you have been told, you are not alone, and there is hope. Whether you struggle with anxiety, grief, trauma or depression-I am here to walk along side you. My approach is holistic in nature, non-judgmental, empathetic, and compassionate. I walk along side you as we explore your thoughts and feelings, to help better understand yourself, and find ways to create healthy alternatives as you move forward. My goal is to not only create a safe space for you, but to also empower you as you develop the insight, curiosity, and courage to create the life you want.

Do you seek guidance in your life at this time? Everyone has a story to tell and I'm here to listen to yours. We may not always be able to clearly see our options to manage stress, emotional pain and confusion, so beginning therapy is a great way to process these emotions and thoughts in a safe, caring and non-judgmental way. Perhaps your fears or worries about relationships, career, a sense of inadequacy or the need to be perfect are holding you back. Therapy helps to facilitate healing and growth. I welcome the opportunity to work with you to improve your sense of success and live your life to the fullest. I've been working with teens and adults for 20 years specializing in: trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, loss/grief, chronic illness and self esteem.

I specialize in working with adult women who are struggling with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing behaviors, and relationship challenges. My approach is grounded in a psychodynamic framework, where we explore the deeper emotional and behavioral patterns that shape your current struggles. By developing greater insight and awareness, we work together to understand the root causes of your emotions and actions, helping you create lasting change. In our first sessions, we'll focus on what's currently bringing you to therapy and begin to build a foundation of trust and understanding. As our work evolves, we’ll go deeper, uncovering the underlying dynamics that influence your thoughts and feelings. My practice is unique in that I often work with my clients long-term, creating a supportive space for continued personal growth and healing. I am deeply passionate about this work and feel privileged to help guide women on their therapeutic journey. Every day, I’m grateful for the opportunity to be a therapist and to support my clients in finding the insights and strength to live more fulfilling lives.

I am an LMSW, soccer coach, and former collegiate athlete. Formerly the Ehrenberg Family Fellow for Athletic Counseling in the University of Michigan Athletic Department. I provided mental health and athletic performance care for up to thirty Division 1 varsity student-athletes. I received my master’s degree from the University of Michigan School of Social Work in 2020. My passion is to help individuals become masters of themselves and to help them accomplish their goals. I work from a social justice lens to be culturally sensitive, utilizing strength-based, solution-focused interventions. I strive to work collaboratively toward clients’ objectives. I have worked with patients on athletic performance, injury support, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, sleep issues, relational stressors, grief/loss, trauma and suicidality. My approach is foundationally a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) framework, and I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I intend to earn my certification in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). The area I am most passionate about is the study of traumatic, toxic-stress, and mind/body symptoms. I have been interested in how trauma extends beyond some of the more historic notions of PTSD and ACEs. I myself was a collegiate athlete and, through many hardships and obstacles, on and away from the field, went through my own mental health journey. After coaching youth soccer for eight years since college, it became apparent to me that we had been neglecting the mental health of athletes and, oftentimes, of youth in general. In turn, my biggest motivation became de-stigmatizing mental health problems, particularly in the world of sport, and being a spokesperson for the value of therapy.

Welcome to your therapy journey! I am Karen Poindexter, and I earned my master's degree in social work from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan.

I utilize a strength-based perspective and view counseling as my calling to assist individuals with regaining balance in their lives. I incorporate Christianity and faith-based principles into counseling. The ability to guide someone on the path of decreasing depression, anxiety, conflict or merely not feeling heard, is an honor that I do not take likely. Sometimes it can feel uncertain, scary even, to take the step to begin therapy. However, you are so worth it, and I look forward to connecting with you soon.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Michigan rather than a city like Detroit?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Michigan from Grand Rapids to Warren! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Michigan.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Self Esteem?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Self Esteem, is filtering therapists in Michigan that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
