About Karen

Hi! I'm a school counselor with over 10 years of experience supporting children and families. I'm currently completing my second Master's in Clinical Counseling and have a strong background in social emotional development, behavior support, and crisis intervention. I've worked with children of all ages, including those with IEPs, 504 plans, and behavioral needs. My approach is warm, patient, and structured, creating a safe environment while maintaining clear expectations. I incorporate coping skills, emotional regulation, and problem solving into everyday interactions. I am CPR/First Aid certified, hold a Level One Fingerprint Card, trained in Psychological First Aid and crisis intervention, and currently enrolled in an ABA certificate program (BCBA track). I'm bilingual in English and Spanish and value open communication with families. Thank you.
