Welcome, I am so glad you are here! My name is Karen Porta and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I received my Master's degree from Nova Southeastern University and have been practicing for approximately 7 years. I have worked with a multitude of clients with issues coping with trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, life transitions, relationship issues, etc. It is truly my passion to work with clients through some of life's biggest challenges. Let's grow together! Also offer weekend appointments, please contact me for availability.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help to create an individualized plan for us to work through to meet your treatment goals.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Each client will be met with kindness, compassion and a safe space to work through their toughest challenges.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about life's challenges.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is used to help each client improve their quality of life by changing their thoughts and behaviors. With this collaborative approach, we will explore, identify and challenge ideals and beliefs, and develop coping skills aimed at changing the negative behaviors.
