01About Karen
Karen Hargrove helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and issues around identity and intimacy. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - practicing in Georgia and brings ten years of experience to her work. Her style is practical and straightforward, aimed at steady, manageable change.
Karen focuses on building trust and on using each persons own experience as a resource. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented.
Background and approach
She helps clients notice patterns, try new ways of responding, and practice skills between sessions. Her approach is collaborative. She will listen closely to what matters most and shape sessions around those priorities.
People leave sessions with concrete ideas to use in daily life rather than only long discussions. Karen also supports people through big life transitions, grieving, career shifts, and the stress of caregiving or compassion fatigue. She pays attention to cultural background and how identity affects relationships and wellbeing.
In addition to working on mood and coping skills, she helps with parenting concerns, issues tied to gender and sexual identity, and challenges common to young adults and women. Karen aims to help clients find clearer direction and greater confidence as they move forward.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Evidence-based techniques are used in straightforward ways to help with mood, anxiety, trauma, and relationship concerns. One common approach focuses on skill-building and behavioral change - learning small practices to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and handle cravings. These are taught in sessions and practiced between appointments to create steady progress.Another frequently used approach helps people process difficult experiences and reduce their ongoing emotional impact. Work in this area involves exploring how past events affect current reactions and trying new ways of responding that feel safer and more useful in daily life.
Choosing the right method is a shared process. The therapist will talk about options, watch how you respond, and adjust the plan based on your goals and preferences so the approach fits your needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful when visual cues matter and you want a near in-person feel. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or messaging can work for short check-ins, quick skill reminders, or when you need flexibility around work and daily life. These options make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule and keep consistent progress.
