Phone Therapy with Karen

Need an eating consultation or looking to do some long-term work to turn your eating around?

I’ve treated hundreds of compulsive and emotional eaters, chronic dieters and people who yo-yo back and forth between eating extremes and I can help you. With three decades of experience, I can zero right in on what’s going on with your eating and tell you what you need to do to improve your relationship with food, the scale, yourself, and the people around you who impact your eating. I have the clinical and personal know how to diagnose exactly what the problem is and how to fix you up and send you on your way. I can’t cure you overnight—no one can do that—but I can teach you the skills you need to transform your eating and achieve lasting results. The rest of the hard work is up to you.

Whether you’re looking to stop decades of emotional eating, let go of your need to be in charge around food, or tweak your eating to make it more relaxed and “normal,” I’ll give you my undivided attention and expertise and put my years of experience to work to help you resolve your eating and related issues. I'll even pay for the call anywhere within the continental United States, and provide you with a post-session, individualized treatment plan to help you keep moving forward long after our work together is done. You pay only my standard session fee. Call (941) 379-9849 or email me at contact Karen R. Koenig, LCSW, M.Ed. for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Here’s what clients have to say about their success through telephone therapy:

I can’t believe that in just two phone sessions Karen steered me in a new direction with food.
-- R.G.

Working with Karen for a year, I’ve grown so much. My eating has become "normal" for the most part, though our work is not just about food. Karen highlights things which are "new" to me—and sometimes the truth hurts—but she also respects when I say I’m not ready to do something. I highly recommend her if you are ready to get serious about the work that needs to be done in your life.
-- A.Y.

I’ve been doing tele-coaching with Karen for two years, allowing me to benefit from her expertise and coaching from a distance. My relationship with food and my body is healthier now because of our sessions.
-- T.L.

Doing tele-coaching with Karen was what finally brought to light how issues with dieting and the focus on my body were ways I attempted to deal with emotions and areas of my life that I did not want or know how to face. Doing tele-coaching helped me change my thoughts and actions and my body seemed to follow suit naturally. Karen has a way of showing you the blind spots in your thinking and gently challenges you to face those areas of life you so desperately need to see clearly for lasting changes to occur. Its the best gift I have ever given myself.
-- H.L.

My therapist is great but she’s not a specialist in food addictions, so she referred me to Karen. There really is a difference when someone knows about eating obsessions. I can see progress already and I’m really grateful.
-- L.L.

Karen is helping me understand the underlying causes of my overeating. I am learning to be more self-aware, experiencing my emotions rather than smothering them with food. After many years of unsuccessful dieting, Karen has opened my eyes to the path toward normal eating.
