About Karina
Karina Rocha Vasquez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and clear. She focuses on practical conversations that match a person's needs.
Sessions are built around what the client wants to change, whether that is coping with life transitions, rebuilding confidence, or managing compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Karina listens and helps people set small, realistic goals. Her approach blends tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means she can help someone identify unhelpful thinking, strengthen emotional connections, and focus on solutions that work now.
The work is collaborative and goal-directed. Karina has four years of professional experience working with a wide range of concerns. She draws on that time to tailor conversations, options, and homework to each person.
She aims to be respectful and sensitive in every session. People often come to her for help with relationship strain, grief, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, anger, career strain, and family-of-origin issues. She also works with issues like body image, codependency, dissociation, and disruptive mood concerns.
Karina supports both English and Spanish speakers and is available to international clients.
How therapy approaches fit into online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with motivation or concentration. EFT, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, centers on understanding and expressing emotions to improve how people relate to themselves and others, and it can help with relationship strain and attachment concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on immediate, practical steps and small goals to create change quickly, which many people find useful when managing life transitions or ADHD-related challenges.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. Clients can try an approach and adjust as needed during follow-up conversations.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a check-in fits a tight schedule. Live chat and text messaging allow brief updates, quick problem-solving, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into work, school, or caregiving routines.
