Dr. Karen Peters, LMHC

She’s my therapist for almost 6mos. now. I’ve been better compared from my first few sessions. She has been a good help to me and still helps me a lot.

Karen has been very helpful to me in uncovering underlying issues related to my mental health problems, and she has helped me in many ways — from working on my self-esteem to working on improving my personal and romantic relationships. Karen is very easy to talk to and very accommodating when it comes to fitting in extra sessions as needed. I would highly recommend Karen to my friends, especially those dealing with depression, anxiety, and self-esteem issues.

I have enjoyed my time with Karen Peters so far. I find it easier to communicate via text. Not only is it less time consuming but I am more open in this format. Karen Peters responds to my messages quickly and has great suggestions.

I was pretty nervous to try virtual therapy because I thought it may be awkward or difficult to connect with a counselor online. However, working with Karen felt natural from the start and I feel totally comfortable working through my thoughts and emotions with her. Karen allows me the opportunity to speak about whatever is on my mind, but also provides gentle guidance and suggestions when I feel a little lost, which is exactly what I look for in a therapist. It is especially helpful to send her quick messages throughout the week when something distressing comes up or I want to share an example of progress I've made. Karen responds quickly with helpful advice or encouraging feedback, which is much appreciated and a communication option that has never been an option in my past experience with traditional therapy. It's comforting to know that I can express myself without judgement and receive quick, helpful feedback to get me through that moment. Video sessions give me an outlet to speak my mind freely and brainstorm ways to address my issues; I look forward to them every week and can already see our work together making a positive impact on my life. I am very thankful for Karen and BetterHelp for providing a safe place to turn to in this chaotic time!
