Karen Provart, LCPC, provides care with our Springfield Clinic Behavioral Health team. She sees patients at Springfield Clinic Pediatric and Adolescent Center.

She earned her Master of Arts in Counseling from Lincoln Christian Seminary in Lincoln, Ill., and her Bachelor of Arts in Counseling from McKendree College in Lebanon, Ill. She has more than fifteen years of experience in behavioral/mental health.

"I have always had an interest in working with children. As a pediatric mental health therapist, I have the opportunity to help young people work through their challenges, which will better prepare them for adulthood," says Karen.

Karen views the growth of her patients as one of the most rewarding benefits of her career.

In her free time, Karen enjoys traveling with her family and solving escape rooms. She is also a lifetime member of the service fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega, and serves as a district member for the Boy Scouts of America.
