Karey May

Introduction

Karey May is a therapist, researcher, and passionate advocate for attunement in the counseling process. She specializes in supporting children, teens, and families as they uncover the “why” behind behaviors and rediscover the connection that turns growth into something lasting and meaningful. Her work centers on ADHD, particularly in girls, moral development, and guiding families to shift from control-based dynamics to curiosity-led relationships.


In a culture quick to label, Karey brings a grounded, compassionate approach. She listens deeply, teaches with clarity, and bridges the gap between research and real-life application. Her sessions are marked by warmth, insight, and a deep commitment to understanding the whole person.


Outside the therapy room, Karey thrives in nature. Whether she’s tending to her plants, lost in a good book, or joyfully outnumbered by her goldendoodles, she finds healing in the simple things. She often says that transformation begins with curiosity, compassion, and a little dirt under your nails.

Counseling Philosophy

Karey May is a compassionate counselor who specializes in supporting children and adolescents through a blend of empathy, strategy, and evidence-based care. With a background in both business and psychology, she brings a unique perspective to her work, merging practical tools with a deeply person-centered approach.
Karey utilizes child-centered play therapy and strength-based techniques to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where young clients can explore their emotions, develop self-awareness, and grow. She tailors each session to the unique needs of the individual, believing that healing and resilience are built through connection, curiosity, and trust.
