I am Karen Volcy-Sylvain, a Licensed Professional Counselor ready to assist you as you make challenging decisions for yourself, your career, and your relationships. I help you replace negative, self-defeating thoughts with positive, and goal-directed thoughts. Personalized services are used to support, guide and encourage you.
As a divorced, working mother of 4 children, I quickly learned how easily one can lose themself to work, marriage, and motherhood. It's easy to set unrealistic expectations for yourself that leave you feeling alone, defeated, disappointed, and depleted; all while trying to make sure everyone else’s needs are being met. As a result, I learned the value of reflection and boundaries. This only enhances my understanding of your need for an empathetic and impartial guide helping to support and encourage you through the various stages of life.
My therapeutic approach is designed to help identify and breakdown negative thoughts which can keep us from achieving our goals by being person- centered with a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Change and growth is inevitable. You are valuable, unique and deserve respect. Our relationship is based on trust and a genuine concern for your wellbeing, mind, body and spirit!
