About Karen — The Evolution of Soulular Therapy
My work is the result of more than twenty years devoted to understanding how humans heal — emotionally, relationally, somatically, energetically, and spiritually. What I offer is not a collection of techniques, but a cohesive, multidimensional path that has grown organically through years of training, practice, and deep inner work. Every modality I’ve studied has layered into the next, forming a way of working that meets clients on every level and guides them back to their truth with clarity, compassion, and grounded presence.
At the center of my development is my long-time study with Lawrence Conlan in mindfulness, meditation, awareness, and deepening with breath. His teachings are the quiet foundation beneath everything I do — shaping how I listen, how I witness, and how I hold space for truth to emerge.
From this foundation, my relational work came into clear focus. I certified as a coach in Relational Life Therapy (RLT) with Terry Real, learning to help clients interrupt entrenched patterns, repair relational ruptures, and communicate with honesty, accountability, and mutual care. RLT is the structural and practical backbone of the relational work I offer today. In preparation for my RLT training, I trained with The Relationship School®, deepening my understanding of communication, attachment systems, and conflict repair. This training strengthened my ability to guide clients through complex emotional and relational landscapes with clarity and grounded support.
An essential part of the undercurrent of my work is my training in Multidimensional Self Work and Spiritual Response Therapy with Kathryn Hamilton-Cook and Barbara Standiford. Their teachings expanded my ability to see the deeper architecture of a client’s patterns — the soul-level imprints, energetic layers, and unconscious dynamics that shape identity, relationships, and emotional responses. This multidimensional mapping continues to inform every session.
Complementary and prior to that, I completed two years of intuitive healing training with Marie Manuchehri, which refined my ability to read the emotional and energetic truths beneath a client’s narrative. This training expanded my intuitive clarity and the way I help clients access their own inner guidance. I also completed two years of shamanic practitioner training with Alleson Lansel, which broadened my understanding of energy, symbolic transformation, and the deeper spiritual dynamics that influence emotional and relational patterns.
Before all of this came the body. As a Licensed Massage Therapist with training in CranioSacral Therapy(Upledger Institute) and Visceral Manipulation (Barral Institute), I learned how the body stores memory, how the nervous system protects what it cannot yet process, and how emotional patterns often express themselves physically. This somatic foundation continues to shape the depth and precision of my work.
Together, these lineages create the essence of Soulular Therapy — a space where relational truth, somatic awareness, intuitive insight, energetic clarity, inner-child healing, mindfulness, and multidimensional understanding all meet.
Clients come to me when they’re ready to see clearly, release what no longer serves them, and step into a more grounded and aligned version of themselves.
This is the heart of my work: helping you return to yourself — fully, compassionately, and from the inside out.
