About Me
Dr. Karen Oldham
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I am a North Carolina state-licensed Doctor of Psychology with almost 30 years of professional experience. I regularly attend seminars and conventions to ensure that my work is informed by the most advanced scientific research in clinical practice.
Special Areas of Treatment:
TraumaDepression
Anxiety
Women's Issues
Divorce
Identity IssuesFamily Conflict
Eating Issues
Grief and Loss
Career Decisions
Stress
Unlike most other medical professions, in psychotherapy the patient's physical environment has a significant impact on the healing process. I understand the importance of providing patients with a warm, friendly and familiar atmosphere.
Online therapy sessions are conducted in a manner so you can be certain that what you say during therapy stays between you and your therapist.
Be prepared for your online sessions by meeting in a private and quiet space. Give yourself a few extra minutes to connect and use the Zoom technology.
