CranioSacral Therapy and the Immune Response (CSIR) Course Dates

Karen's approach to treatment is to help clients recognize and reconnect to inner resources necessary for deep healing at a core level. Her private practice focuses on infants, children, and adults of all ages. She often works with clients who are experiencing chronic, debilitating disorders; those going through life transitions; and infants and children with developmental delays. Additionally, Karen has extensive experience working with trauma and PTSD, anxiety disorders, TMJ dysfunction, traumatic brain injuries, chronic pain, immune system problems, and sensory processing disorders in both children and adults. Karen's work is influenced by current research on somatic psychology, mind-body medicine, neurobiology, mindfulness, anatomy, and physiology.

Karen began teaching CranioSacral Therapy for the Upledger Institute International in 2007. She is currently certified to teach CS1, CS2, CSCN1, CSIR, CSIR-AB, Clinical Applications, CATP, and CST Overview and Intro courses. Karen is a certified Upledger CST mentor and CST Techniques examiner. Her strengths as an instructor are her ability to clearly and concisely deliver technical material while teaching from the heart and maintaining a grounded, safe learning environment and also throwing in a couple jokes here and there! She is passionate about CranioSacral Therapy and dedicated to helping spread Dr. Upledger's work to the far corners of the globe.
