About Karyn
Karyn Borrego is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who uses a compassionate, faith-informed approach to help people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. She focuses on guiding clients through emotional pain and helping them build practical coping skills for day-to-day life.
Her work emphasizes understanding personal values and strengths. She helps people recover from trauma and navigate relationship challenges by listening closely and creating a calm space to talk. She often supports clients dealing with panic disorder and panic attacks, stress, and mood concerns.
With seven years of clinical experience, Karyn draws on therapies that encourage action, emotional processing, and skill building. She partners with clients to set realistic goals and practice tools that reduce distress between sessions. This includes techniques to manage strong emotions and to shift unhelpful thought patterns.
Karyn has particular experience supporting women through social anxiety, midlife transitions, and recovery from past abuse. She also addresses concerns such as codependency, communication problems, and issues around control and life purpose. Her work respects each person’s beliefs and personal story.
Clients can expect a collaborative style that balances practical strategies and emotional exploration. Karyn aims to help people reconnect with resilience and take steady steps toward healthier patterns and greater well-being.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small, values-driven steps. It can be useful for anxiety, panic, and getting unstuck from avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing and testing thoughts and behaviors that keep distress going, with practical exercises to reduce symptoms and build new habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm available formats before booking since specific session options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins between other responsibilities. Therapists often adapt ACT and CBT exercises for remote sessions so people can practice skills at home and report back on what worked and what didn’t.
