Jenn Karew, Psychologist

We usually seek therapy for many different reasons. Yet we all tend to want the same thing; a better understanding or our life experiences. Therapy can help you gain a clearer understanding of your interpersonal relationships and a clearer intrapersonal understanding of yourself. My therapeutic orientation is largely humanistic in nature. What does that mean? That means that I come to you as my authentic, genuine, and imperfect self. I work to see your world as you see it through your eyes. I keep a lookout for blindspots that you might not be aware of and explore these with you to see if they are of any consequence. Within this humanistic orientation, I also engage many evidence-based modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and others as they fit your presenting issues. I find these therapies can help us to explore those nagging voices in our heads that tell us that we aren’t good enough or that we aren’t worth the effort, help us understand our relationship difficulties, and to explore new ways of understanding past traumas.
