About Holly

Holly Karchaske is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, process trauma and abuse, and cope with grief and loss. She also supports clients working on motivation, self-esteem, and career concerns.

Holly focuses on a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate way of working. She adapts conversations and plans to fit each person's needs rather than using one fixed method. The goal is to find practical steps that feel doable day to day.

Over her career she has supported people facing attachment and adoption-related issues, chronic pain and illness, caregiver stress, and substance concerns. She also addresses body image, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and feelings of isolation or shame.

Holly is licensed as an LPC in Colorado and Texas. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailors those methods to what a person needs most. Sessions aim to build skills for coping, improve confidence, and help clients make clearer choices about work and wellbeing.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Holly presents therapy as a supportive collaboration. She helps people set goals, try new ways of responding, and track small changes that add up over time.

How evidence-based techniques fit into online care

Holly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem. For example, she may use practical coping skills training to help people manage anxious moments and build routines that support mood and focus. She also draws on trauma-informed methods that focus on safety, grounding, and slowly building tolerance for difficult memories and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Holly will discuss different techniques and help decide which methods match a person's goals and day-to-day life. This is a collaborative process that can shift as needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up or brief check-ins when needed. They can also let someone join from a place with fewer distractions, or choose a shorter session when time is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well across in-person or remote sessions, helping clients practice skills between meetings.
