Karen Blanchette

Taking the first step toward change can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. With more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health, I have had the privilege of working with individuals of diverse backgrounds, and I've helped adults and adolescents navigate emotional challenges, addiction, behavioral concerns, and co-occurring disorders. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and lasting change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-focused, helping you build on your strengths, identify meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to create a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents (ages 16 and older) experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, emotional challenges, and dual diagnoses. I also have extensive experience helping older teens and young adults navigate adjustment difficulties, emotional concerns, and behavioral challenges.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Whether you're seeking relief from overwhelming emotions, working toward recovery, or simply looking to improve your overall well-being, I am committed to helping you find a path forward that fits your unique needs and goals.

In our first session, I want to learn about you--your needs, strengths, and goals. Together, we will identify some short-term goals and potential path toward achieving them.
