    About Karen

    Karen Peck is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She has 18 years of experience helping people navigate substance use concerns, trauma, grief, and major life changes. Karen approaches clients with respect for their own expertise about their lives and focuses on practical steps forward.

    Her background includes work with post-traumatic stress and first responder and veteran issues, as well as drug and alcohol concerns. She uses several approaches in therapy, including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. These methods are used to help people reduce harmful patterns, manage strong feelings, and rebuild routines.

    Karen aims to create a space where clients can set achievable goals and notice progress. Sessions often focus on clear skills and choices that people can try between meetings. She emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s pace and priorities.

    Her practice is practical and straightforward. Conversations explore what matters most, identify small steps that feel doable, and track what changes after trying something new. Karen supports efforts to improve communication, cope with anger, strengthen self-esteem, and make career or parenting decisions.

    People who want a counselor who listens and helps shape a plan may find her approach useful. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s process to match with a therapist and set up a first session.

  2. How these approaches look in online therapy

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on people’s own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to help someone weigh options and strengthen their motivation for different goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which tools to try first and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s life and progress.

    The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quicker follow-up check-ins when needed. It also supports using worksheets, in-session coaching, and skill practice that translate into day-to-day routines without promising a particular format.
