About Karen
Karen Schwartz Triana is a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida. She holds an MD and works as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor. She focuses on common concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and addiction-related issues.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions are shaped to each person's needs and goals. She uses short-term tools and longer conversations so clients can see steps forward between visits.
Background and approach
Karen draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, listening space where the client’s perspective guides the work. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thinking and test new behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps when clients feel stuck and want support finding internal reasons to change.
She has 14 years of experience working in counseling roles, including earlier work as a career counselor. That background informs help with career decisions and workplace stress as well as personal concerns. She tracks progress with clear goals and regular reflections at the end of sessions.
Sessions can include talk work, practical coping exercises, and homework when it helps. She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable steps. The tone is collaborative and goal-oriented, focused on steady change over time.

Online support
How chosen approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client so they feel understood and can make their own choices; it helps when someone needs support to clarify values and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to test and change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. Motivational Interviewing helps people who feel ambivalent about change by drawing out their own reasons and plans to move forward.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is tracked. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to use and how fast to move.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let clients send quick updates, do focused check-ins, or work through short coaching-style tasks between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep contact consistent as goals evolve.
