About Karol
Karol brings 18 years of clinical experience in Washington to her practice. She uses a client-centered stance that highlights each person's strengths. She also draws on systemic ideas to pay attention to how relationships and surroundings affect how someone feels and behaves.
Her sessions commonly include techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches and insight-oriented methods. Karol also uses narrative and experiential work to help people make sense of their stories and their emotions. She aims to match techniques to the issue at hand rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
In sessions she focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship first. From there she helps clients set practical goals, try new ways of communicating, and practice skills to manage mood, cravings, or worry. She also supports parents and fathers dealing with role strain, blended family issues, and family-of-origin patterns.
Karol describes her role as supportive and empowering. She tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person. To begin, she asks people to reflect on what they want to change and then works alongside them toward those goals.
