COUNSELING SERVICES
IMAGO Couples Counseling
✨ Karen Olson, MA, is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and founder of Caritas. She utilizes a broad variety of techniques tailored to individual clients’ needs. She is especially passionate about couples counseling through the Imago therapy model as outlined by Dr. Harville Hendrix. Imago Relationship Therapy is an effective, loving and compassionate approach to bridging the distance between you and your partner!
IMAGO Couples Counseling is a relationship-focused approach that helps partners deepen understanding, strengthen communication, and rebuild connection. Through guided conversations and practical tools, couples learn to listen with empathy, express their needs in a safe and respectful way, and work together to navigate challenges. Whether you are looking to strengthen an already healthy relationship or heal from conflict and disconnection, IMAGO Couples Counseling provides a supportive environment for creating greater trust, compassion, and lasting intimacy.

WHAT IS THE IMAGO METHOD?
About The IMAGO Method
A certified Imago therapist and workshop presenter, she has received advanced training in this method from Maya Kollman. The Imago model honors the relationship between two people as a vehicle for change and deep healing. In her couples counseling sessions, Karen seeks to empower the “team” of the couple. Using practical techniques to help couples improve their communication and facilitate deeper understanding and compassion, Karen guides couples towards conscious love and growth, healing old wounds in the process.
Imago therapy is a wonderfully effective and safe approach to helping relationship partners grow into understanding each other more fully and relating more honestly as they evolve into greater wholeness as individuals within the relational context they share. It empowers couples and individuals with tools, skills, and principles that they can learn and use on their own, thereby reducing dependence on a therapist.
