Hi, My name is Karin (pronounced Ca-Lin) and I am bilingual (Burmese & English) a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I strive to create a warm and inclusive space where everyone, regardless of background, feels heard, valued, and respected. My approach is rooted in cultural understanding, honoring the unique experiences and perspectives each person brings to our work together. Do you feel stressed out, anxious in a social circle, feel blue? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help people manage anxiety and depression. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole person and CBT approaches, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit.

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing.This will help me create a tailored pan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I take a holistic approach to mental health and well-being, taking the time to truly listen to each person’s story. Together, we create personalized solutions that reflect their strengths and values. I believe in the power of change within everyone and am dedicated to fostering a space built on trust, empathy, and growth.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I specialize in supporting individuals who are facing life's challenges and feel stuck in finding ways to cope. My clients are eager to feel better and are motivated to develop healthy coping skills, but they may not yet have the tools they need to navigate life’s ups and downs effectively. Together, we work on building the skills and strategies for lasting positive change.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

My approach to therapy is primarily based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which means I help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, and work on changing unhelpful behaviors that may be contributing to your struggles. CBT is evidence-based and focuses on the present, helping you develop practical tools for coping with challenges in your daily life. However, I also take an eclectic approach, which means that I may integrate other therapeutic techniques from different modalities when they seem beneficial for you. This could include elements from other approaches like mindfulness, psychodynamic therapy, or solution-focused therapy. The goal is to customize the therapy to fit what will work best for you, based on your specific concerns, preferences, and goals. In other words, while CBT is the foundation of our work together, I will draw from other approaches as needed to make sure we are using the most effective methods for your personal growth and healing.
