Karina Rocha Vasquez

Karina Rocha Vasquez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people managing stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing relationship strain, compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, grief, parenting challenges, and career transitions. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first step toward change easier to take.

Karina keeps sessions practical and focused on the person in front of her. She listens without judgment and works with each client to build a plan that fits their situation. Conversations emphasize clear steps, small goals, and skills that can be used between meetings.

She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide work in session. That can mean noticing and changing unhelpful thought patterns, improving emotional connection, or finding quick strategies to move forward. Techniques are chosen to match the client's goals and daily life.

With four years of experience, Karina has supported people through trauma, family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and disruptive mood challenges such as DMDD. She also addresses eating and body image issues, codependency, dissociation, and control or communication problems.

Karina emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in her practice. She aims to empower clients to build confidence and motivation. To begin, she asks people to share their goals so sessions can be tailored to what matters most to them.

How these approaches guide online work

Karina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to shape online sessions. CBT is about identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce stress, anxiety, and anger. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding emotions and improving how people respond to strong feelings in relationships and personal struggles.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to zero in on small, practical steps that create quick momentum. Together, these approaches give both short-term tools and deeper emotional work. Finding the right mix is part of the process and will be decided collaboratively based on your goals, needs, and preferences.
