More about Karol
- 18 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am licensed in Washington with 18 years of professional work experience. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I obtained my Master's Degree in 2005 in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Lutheran University (PLU) and my Bachelor's Degree from St. Martin's University in 2001. I have spent over 10 years working in the community mental health system whereby I earned both my Child Mental Health Specialist (CMHS) and Mental Health Professional (MHP) designations.
I utilize a client-centered approach to therapy, emphasizing the individual strength and resources of each client, in addition to a systemic theoretical focus, which is a theoretical orientation that acknowledges the complex interaction between individuals and their World around them. I utilize a wide range of treatment approaches, choosing the most effective for the issue involved, which include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), insight-oriented therapy models, and narrative & experiential therapies. I primarily work from an experiential theoretical orientation, which emphasizes the importance of understanding, embracing, and coming to terms with one's feelings.
I work with individuals, children, adolescents, couples, and families. I believe the therapeutic relationship is paramount to change. The primary areas of treatment that I focus on include depression, anxiety, stress, relationships/marriage issues, trauma, anger management, communication issues, and life transitions.
I enjoy helping others become motivated, increase positive self-esteem, and exude confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Excellent!!
I'm very happy to have Karol supporting me.
Karol is real with me. She listens to me and challenges me to see more in myself but also is direct. I’m lucky to have found my perfect therapist— I can’t handle things sugar coated. I need it to be real and direct but still be constructive. She asks me the tough questions and I can’t hide from her. One of my first visits a few years ago, I told Karol that I will hold back parts from my therapist if I know they will not ask the tough questions— She never forgot and that is worth its weight in gold.
Karol is awesome, I will never be able to say how much she has helped me through the most difficult time. Because of her help, I’m moving into the direction I need too.
Easy to talk to, works with me to set up and help me reach my goals by identifying and processing what I've internalized.
Karol is a great listener and her upbeat and realistic demeanor jives well with my personality, and makes me feel comfortable .
Karol is an awesome therapist. Very attentive, warm, knowledgeable, respectful, respectable, insightful, the list goes on. I am very grateful for her
Appreciate Karol for being natural and comfortable to talk with about deeper feelings
Karol is kind and easy to talk to. She is easy-going and understanding, I am already experiencing the benefits of therapy and I look forward to the positive changes this will make in my life.
She is extremely good at understanding what I am going through and sometimes when I don’t have the words to explain it, she is able to do so. She gives me ways that are helping me improve my mental health and she helps me look into root problems. She checks up on me which is really important to me and makes me feel that she is there not just as a therapist but as someone who is truly there for me and supports me.
Karol has a lot of experience, she understands, and has helped me considerably.
