Hi there, I'm Karina!
I’m a first-generation Mexican American mental health therapist specializing in trauma, depression, and anxiety. My personal and cultural background deeply informs my approach to therapy—I understand the complexities of navigating identity, generational expectations/trauma, and emotional healing.
My focus
I have worked extensively with trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and childhood trauma. My experience is tailored to individuals between the ages of 3 years old to 40 years old.
My approach
I offer a safe space to explore your voice and build upon an individuals empowerment and resiliency. I take a narrative approach and allow you to guide your session, while also providing cognitive guidance to go deeper in your processing. I appreciate the use of humor, because life is already so serious.
