About Karen
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 18 years of clinical experience, Karen Peck works with people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and major life changes. She also focuses on issues such as parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career decisions, communication problems, and substance use concerns. Karen uses several approaches to support practical change, including cognitive behavior techniques and trauma-focused strategies.
Karen sees clients as the experts on their own lives and builds on individual strengths. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is reviewed in clear steps. Sessions typically involve talking through situations, learning specific skills, and practicing new ways of responding to stress and cravings. Karen applies methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people recognize patterns and develop coping tools. Motivational Interviewing is used when decisions about change and recovery are the focus. Trauma-Focused Therapy and mindfulness techniques are included as needed to reduce distress and improve regulation. Her approach is straightforward and skill-oriented. She helps people set manageable goals, track progress, and adjust techniques when something is not working. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches apply in online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective patterns. It is often used for addictions, anxiety, and problems with mood by teaching concrete coping skills. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can help when anger, self-esteem, or intense reactions interfere with daily life. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic memories and reducing post-traumatic stress symptoms through structured techniques and pacing.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and will recommend or combine methods based on what fits best. Clients and the therapist check in on progress and adjust methods when needed, keeping the plan practical and goal-oriented.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, shorten travel time, and allow a quicker check-in during a break. Phone sessions can require less bandwidth and may be useful when a video call is difficult. These practical benefits help sessions fit day-to-day life while the therapist applies CBT, DBT, or trauma-focused techniques as appropriate.
