About Karen

Karen Morris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 37 years of experience. She helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those navigating relationship strain, career changes, identity questions like LGBT concerns, and issues such as compassion fatigue and bipolar mood challenges.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She listens closely to what people say and pays attention to patterns they might miss.

Background and approach

Karen responds with compassion, honest feedback, and sometimes a bit of offbeat humor tied to music, books, or sci-fi and fantasy references. Karen often uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. She also draws on client-centered and psychodynamic ideas to notice feelings and early life influences that shape present behavior.

Solution-focused work helps when people want practical steps and short-term goals. In sessions she invites collaboration. Clients bring their experience and goals, and she offers questions, reflections, and small experiments to try between meetings.

She describes therapy as a joint exploration where the person holds the flashlight and she helps with the map. Karen practices from Indiana and conducts sessions in English. Her approach aims to make difficult topics feel manageable and to help people find clearer choices in daily life.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Karen directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How narrative and client-centered work translate online

Karen often uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and to rewrite those stories in more helpful ways. This approach can be useful for issues like identity, shame, grief, and patterns that repeat from early life.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting a person’s own strengths. That approach helps when someone needs a steady, nonjudgmental space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Karen works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than using one fixed style. Together they try strategies, check what works, and adjust the focus as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, written reflection, and flexible timing between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the work consistent and goal-oriented.
