About Karen
Karen Marconi is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, addictions, LGBT-related concerns, self-esteem struggles, and motivation issues. She also supports those dealing with depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma, grief, anger, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD.
Karen says clients are the experts on their own stories and draws on that perspective during sessions. She focuses on listening first and helping people notice strengths they already have. Conversations are practical and direct, aimed at small changes that make daily life easier.
Her approach uses several well-known methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Client-centered work keeps the conversation focused on the client's goals and experience. Motivational Interviewing helps people find reasons to change when they feel stuck.
She also draws on narrative and solution-focused techniques to reframe problems and set short-term, achievable goals. That mix can be useful when someone wants concrete steps for relief alongside time to talk through deeper issues. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, trying practical exercises, and checking progress over time.
Karen practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling the first session so she can understand immediate needs and match on practical details.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Karen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed remotely. Client-Centered Therapy keeps sessions focused on what matters most to the client, with the therapist reflecting and clarifying the client's own goals.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people resolve mixed feelings about change. This approach is conversational and goal-focused, and it helps when someone wants to build momentum toward specific steps. Deciding which methods to use is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with the client to pick approaches that match their needs and preferences.
