Karen Hutchins, MA, LPC

Karen Hutchins, MA, LPC, CHT has been a psychotherapist since 1972, working in various agencies, treatment centers, and community colleges; accruing experience in working with trauma, addictions, and illegal behavior. She went into private practice in 1991, where she has specialized in working with severe trauma with children, adolescents and adults.

She combines extensive psychotherapeutic trainings and her shamanic practitioner techniques to integrate and facilitate the healing of the Mind, Body and Soul. She works with the four realms of healing: physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. This allows the client to empower themselves by healing the personalities’ wounds and re-remembering the Soul’s purpose/lessons. Addictions and imbalances are often the methods in which the Soul survives and Karen’s extensive experience and training in chemical dependency gives her additional tools in the healing process.

One of the most difficult wounds to heal with trauma and abuse, is the client’s inability to remember his/her own ability to tune into his/her own “Knowing”. Listening to one’s self is also listening to the spiritual connection. Cognitive and experiential therapy helps clients work through the distortion of reality they have experienced.

Inner child work or working with stuck developmental ego states is another method in which the client can access his/her truth and feelings and become more in the present. Name It, Claim It and Let it Go is the mantra that Karen teaches her clients. Karen’s intuitive style often combines shamanic techniques, energy work and cognitive therapy in working with each client.
