    About Kareen

    Kareen Anderson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 20 years of professional experience. She offers a calm, respectful approach and focuses on helping people make clear, workable changes in their lives.

    Kareen uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck or unsure about change. She also draws on client-centered work and mindfulness to create conversations that are paced to each person. Sessions aim to reduce stress and anxiety, and to strengthen confidence and self-worth.

    Her background includes long-term work with issues such as depression, grief, anger, and relationship conflict. She has experience addressing caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and challenges tied to money or life transitions. Coaching-style tools are available for people wanting practical steps toward wellbeing.

    Kareen works with people on communication problems, control issues, separation and divorce, and the emotional impact of domestic violence. She has led group work in related areas and brings that practical experience back into individual sessions when helpful.

    She frames the first steps as collaborative and respectful. Kareen tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation. Her goal is to help people build small, sustainable changes that fit their real life.

  2. How these approaches shape online work

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build motivation and small next steps. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person’s priorities and feelings, with the therapist following the client’s lead and offering empathy and support.

    These approaches are explored together so the therapist and client can decide what fits best. Kareen will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as needed. Finding the right approach is part of therapy, and it is shaped by the client’s needs and preferences.

    If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats available before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid being on camera if that feels better. Talk with the therapist about what will suit your routine and goals before scheduling.
