Karen Plascencia

My communication style

I do my best to be a compassionate listener and intuitive communicator. My goal is always to make my client feel respected, acknowledged, seen, and heard. My hope is that my clients will always find my approach and personality to be genuine, intentional, and effortlessly comfortable.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist stems from an early age when I learned that I could hold space for my loved ones in a way that felt effortless but impactful. I worked and volunteered as an educator in underserved communities for many years meeting wonderful people who I came to realize just wanted to be heard.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative contract where together we identify reasonable, realistic, and manageable goals to serve as a compass towards therapeutic work.

Our first session

During the first session, clients can expect me to address the therapeutic process, goals, forms of communication, and meeting arrangements. It's important for me to always check-in with my client to make sure they have the opportunity to ask questions, and or voice any concerns.
