"Karen Vandiver is a truly gifted, experienced and highly skilled therapist of high professional integrity. I knew her during my time in Texas when I directed the Warrior Combat Stress Reset Program from 2007-2015. Reset was the intensive PTSD clinic at Fort Hood.
I referrerd patients to her on a regular basis, including active duty soldiers and veterans with PTSD and TBI, military families with all manner of dysfuntional situations and the children of military families with behavior problems and school issues. She was also a strong addition to the Songwriting with Soldiers Project..
Her soldiers and their families loved her. Her skill set is broad and deep, including family systems therapy, mind-body therapy, trauma focused interventions, and couples therapy. She provided positive results in a surprisingly short time.
Karen is a positive person, bright, optimistic, and genuine. I recommend her as a therapist, teacher, and supervisor without reservation."

Karen has great depth of experience with psychotherapy and has provided individual and couples' therapy to a number of my patients with very successful results. In addition, she is adept with trauma issues after having worked with military over a number of years and is trained in EMDR. She has extensive training in Mindfulness Meditation that is helpful for stress and anxiety. I would highly recommend Karen as a very competent and skillful clinician.
