Getting to know Karen Cappello

Hi, I'm Karen! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University, and I’m excited to support my clients from pain to living a full and enriching life! I approach each client as they are—with no hidden agenda, no expectations—just greeting you in a laid-back, open-minded, and nonjudgmental space. Working together, we will get to the root of the problems that are taking away from you living your fullest life and find solutions that work for YOU! I find that most of my clients enjoy getting down to the business of getting better and want to move away from their challenges quickly. With that in mind, I rely heavily on Motivational Interviewing to learn what your pain points are, when they are most likely to crop up for you, and then we start to work on what to do about them. Using CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), I'll ask you to look at the thoughts that might be getting in the way of you living a positive life and then help you challenge those thoughts. We may also use Play Therapy, Art Therapy, Narrative Therapy, DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), Solution-Focused, and Strengths-Based Therapy. While I may use these techniques, you will most likely not be aware of them; just know that I'm well-versed in various modalities to move you from pain to healing. My favorite clients are children 10+, teens, and women who struggle, are courageous, seek to get better, and are willing to share with me their challenges. I know it is very hard to ask for help and seek out support, so by coming to talk, you have already shown how courageous you are! Clients have expressed that I am very happy, laid-back, easy-going, and easy to talk to. I don't judge, will never tell you what to do, and am great at listening and will even challenge you from time to time. I am compassionate, energetic, and honest, and I will keep whatever you tell me to myself—in confidence.
