Our Care Team

Karen Klabunde

Center Director

B.S. in Public Relations; B.S. in Speech Communication

I try to really listen and hear what clients are telling me and be non-judgmental. I often employ motivational interviewing techniques. Overall, I aim to convey compassion and honesty in all my client interactions.

My favorite part of working with women and children is knowing the work we do is empowering women and giving them hope for a better future. I love seeing our women gain confidence and self-love so they can be their best selves and mothers. Seeing moms and kids grow their bond and be a happy, healthy family unit is what keeps me going!

I’ve been happily married for more than 30 years, have three children (one set of twins), and am attempting to break a cycle of generational alcoholism. I enjoy reading, being on a lake, and bonfires when I have some free time.

What We Treat

Wellcome Manor is much more than Substance Use Disorder Treatment.  We use a comprehensive approach where each client is paired with a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor as well as a mental health therapist to address your unique mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health needs.

Our Programs

In developing individualized personalized care plans for women, we use a variety of therapeutic approaches based on your needs and desires – including women’s issues groups, mindful meditation, health education, parent education, 12 step, cognitive behavioral therapy, relapse prevention and more.

Why Wellcome Manor

Since 2007, we have provided women and women with children a safe and supportive environment to recover from substance abuse and co-occurring disorders.  Each individual in our care is treated with a personalized and holistic approach specifically for women.
