Private Practice
My name is Karen Reimers and I’m a board certified psychiatrist. In my private practice, I work with with adult patients and coach individuals and groups.
Psychiatric Consultation
As a psychiatrist, I bring experience from thousands of patient encounters. My patients are my greatest teachers. Using a variety of approaches including psychotherapy, I can help people overcome anxiety, depression, addictions, and other mental health problems. It inspires me to see patients recover and regain their quality of life.
Here are a few of the things I believe in:
Finding joy and happiness in everyday life, even in times of crisis
Synthesizing a variety of perspectives on health and wellness into my medical view of the mind and brain
Integrating psychotherapy with psychiatric medication management and other complementary approaches when appropriate
Recognizing the powerful connection between nutrition and mental well-being
The resilience of the human spirit and the power of self help
I received my B.A. in political science at McGill University in Canada before studying medicine at the Ludwig-Maximilians University of Munich in Germany. I completed my psychiatry residency training at the State University of New York at Buffalo, where I trained in psychotherapy techniques as well as medication management.
In 2013, I began working at Mayo Clinic Health System in Eau Claire, WI. At Mayo, I collaborated with colleagues across disciplines in outpatient, inpatient and hospital consultation-liaison settings. I later served as Treatment Director for a rural acute psychiatric hospital in Wisconsin, and also treated patients at Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation in Minnesota and Florida.
