About Karen

Karen Womack is an Oklahoma-licensed LCSW who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and challenges such as ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and anger.

Background and approach

With 13 years of experience, she also brings attention to aging and geriatric issues as well as caregiver stress, addressing life transitions and parenting concerns with practical support and empathy. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused approaches to help clients examine thoughts, build coping skills, and identify concrete steps toward change.

Her style emphasizes an open, nonjudgmental space where emotions and ideas can be explored collaboratively. Clients are encouraged to set goals and develop strategies that fit their everyday lives.

Karen frames the therapeutic process as a partnership, offering guidance while honoring each person’s pace and priorities. She aims to empower clients to strengthen motivation, boost self-esteem, and manage symptoms so they can move toward a more balanced and satisfying life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Growth

Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s experience at the center, emphasizing empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help people feel heard and understood; this approach supports emotional processing and helps clients identify what they most want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical tools to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and tackle unhelpful thinking patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy looks toward specific goals and small, achievable steps, helping clients build momentum by identifying strengths and workable strategies.

Choosing the right approach is often a collaborative process. Karen partners with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. Together they clarify priorities and decide whether to emphasize skill-building, emotional exploration, or goal-focused interventions.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in these approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care around work and family schedules, access support from home, and try different communication styles to see what feels most effective for each person.
