About Karlee
Karlee Shave is an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) licensed in Michigan with six years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and LGBT concerns. She also works with issues like attachment, abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, and family of origin difficulties.
Karlee approaches sessions in a straightforward, person-centered way. She centers the client's goals and adapts methods to fit what a client needs in the moment. Conversations are practical and aim to build skills for day-to-day life.
She uses techniques from attachment-based work to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) features in sessions when clients need concrete tools for anxiety, mood, or thought patterns. Client-centered approaches guide how she listens and responds so clients steer the focus.
Karlee has experience with adolescents and young adults and with people who identify as LGBTQIA+. She helps people who are dealing with chronic health stress, dissociation, commitment or communication problems, and interpersonal conflict.
Sessions combine talking, skill-building, and practical strategies. Clients can expect collaborative planning, straightforward feedback, and help translating insights into everyday routines. Karlee frames therapy as a process where the client leads and she provides tools and direction.
To begin, she asks people to identify immediate goals and then adjusts the approach as progress is made. This keeps work focused on what actually changes how a person feels and behaves between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using attachment ideas focus on identifying repeating dynamics and practicing different ways of relating. This can help with relationship anxiety, abandonment concerns, and difficulties trusting others.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions into workable steps. In remote sessions CBT often looks like short skill practice, thought records, and homework that fits into daily routines. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and preferences together and adjust methods over time. Decisions about strategies come from what the client wants to change and what feels manageable in day-to-day life.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Those practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent while they try new skills between sessions.
