Personal Statement

Personal Statement:
OAKLAND DREAMWORK & TRANSPERSONAL THERAPY for ALTERNATIVE HEALERS: Get help working through those psychological issues that arise during your work with individuals or groups, or walking your own inner path. CLINICAL CONSULTATION and SUPERVISION: focusing on on the therapeutic relationship and countertransference issues that arise. Adolescent Shadow a specialty. I love helping pre-licensees who are building their businesses through private practice-model, 501(3)c agencies. TRAININGS: Transpersonal: Dreamwork, Intuition in Therapy & Supervision, Countertransference. Practice Building: Basic Marketing for Therapists; Online Marketing; Getting Started in Telehealth; Supervision Consultation and Support. MY BACKGROUND: A licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (#MFC21060) with over 30 years experience, I have an MA in Transpersonal Counseling and an MA in Clinical Psychology from John F. Kennedy University, and a BA in Consciousness from Goddard College. I have been working with dreams, ritual, energy and symbolic systems for over 40 years, and am co-author of The Art of Ritual: Creating & Performing Your Own Rituals for Growth & Change. I studied intuition with Helen Palmer, and did dreamwork with Charles Ponce for six years. At Holden High School (formerly Contra Costa Alternative School) 1981-2014, I created, developed and nourished the Counselor Training and Internship Program. As Clinical Co-Director, I taught, did therapy with teenagers & their families, and trained and supervised the counseling interns & trainees. We need to embrace and integrate our adolescent shadow for our culture to evolve. We cannot become a fully responsible, adult nation until we respect and care for all children. I love the work I did at Holden, & I love the work I do now in private practice full-time, and believe that therapeutic insight must be grounded in right action in the world for growth and healing to be truly realized & operative.

Karen L Kleckner, M.A..

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Walnut Creek, CA

At the core of many personal issues lie old messages of your sense of worth. Those messages conveyed to you while growing-up that minimized your self-esteem. The journey inward toward your past can often be frightening and disheartening. By slowly revisiting the wounded part of yourself, old repetitive behaviors can cease to exist. A new sense of kindness toward yourself will begin to emerge. Allow me to travel with you to discover what is buried deep inside of your soul, exploring what keeps you from becoming all that you want to be.
