About Karina
Karina Rocha Vasquez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and challenges such as ADHD and relationship concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she accepts international clients.
Karina focuses on practical steps clients can take to feel steadier day to day. She listens for patterns that get in the way of feeling connected to others or to personal goals. Conversations move toward clearer choices, small experiments, and skills that fit into a busy life.
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside cognitive behavioral tools and solution-focused techniques. That means she pays attention to emotions and how they shape interactions, while also helping clients try concrete behavioral changes and short-term goals. Sessions are paced to the person's needs and preferences.
Karina describes working with clients on issues tied to family of origin, attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, communication problems, and coping after separation or loss. She also supports people dealing with dissociation, eating and food-related issues, domestic violence aftermath, and career or control concerns.
Clients can expect clear, direct conversation that prioritizes practical coping and emotional understanding. The first meetings typically review current struggles, immediate goals, and what kinds of steps feel doable in everyday life. She asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying core emotions and how they shape interactions. Online sessions can be used to notice emotional patterns, name hard-to-identify feelings, and practice different ways of responding in real time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot thinking patterns and try concrete behavior changes. In teletherapy this often looks like brief experiments between sessions and step-by-step planning to test new strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Karina will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to emphasize based on goals, current challenges, and what feels most useful. That conversation can happen in the first few sessions and be adjusted as needs change.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a busy life, for example by shortening commute time or allowing sessions during a work break. It also lets people continue therapy when geography changes, and supports working with Spanish or English speakers across locations.
