Locations: Telehealth

Hello, my name is Karina Escamilla, M.Ed., LMHCA. I am passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and a culturally sensitive approach. I earned my master’s degree in counseling and am dedicated to helping clients feel heard, empowered, and supported throughout their healing journey. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where clients can grow emotionally, mentally, and personally.

My journey into the mental health field began with a strong desire to help others work through difficult seasons of life and discover their inner strengths. Through my education and training in counseling, I have developed a foundation in supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, trauma, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. I value authenticity, empathy, and creating meaningful therapeutic connections that allow clients to feel comfortable and understood.

My counseling approach is collaborative, client-centered, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I strive to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, strength-based therapy, and person-centered therapy to help clients build coping skills, increase self-awareness, and work toward meaningful goals. I am especially passionate about supporting diverse communities and helping clients build resilience and confidence in their everyday lives.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to work through life’s challenges alone. I would be honored to support you on your journey toward healing, growth, and emotional wellness. If you are ready to begin creating positive change and investing in yourself, I encourage you to reach out today. Your path toward healing starts here.
