Intro
I am so glad that you are here. My name is Karen Poindexter, and I live in and am licensed in Michigan. It is my belief that life is a journey, and all individuals deserve the right to have a safe place to share thoughts and feelings. I am to provide a compassionate space where you feel valued, heard and understood. I consider myself your partner, helping you gain resilience and discover strengths as we work together through life's challenges. Just as each person's journey is unique, I am committed to offering you the care that is as individual as you are.
I am highly motivated to work with neurodivergent/autistic individuals as it is my view that life is a journey, and some individuals need and deserve a place to be able to feel respected and included with navigating the journey. Each person is unique and even when facing challenges deserves to be supported and honored with having their voice heard. Together, I am honored to assist you with feeling safe and valued.
I believe in utilizing both an affirming and strengths-based approach to ensure that each person is seen, empowered and valued. Each person has unique strengths and abilities that can be strengthened in order to overcome challenges and achieve goals. I will listen to your experience and validate your feelings in a safe place.
