Karen Nay, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Karen! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Los Angeles, California, providing therapy services statewide through telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Psychology from California Baptist University. My journey into therapy is guided by a passion for helping others navigate life's challenges and foster meaningful connections. I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment to empower clients on their paths to healing and growth. My approach I specialize in working with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and PTSD. Using evidence-based approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), I tailor techniques to meet each client's unique needs. My goal is to equip clients with tools to overcome obstacles and achieve lasting change. My focus Modern life presents challenges that can lead to anxiety and depression. I work with individuals navigating significant life transitions, including those dealing with low self-esteem and unresolved trauma from childhood or recent experiences. I also support college students grappling with perfectionism and self-doubt, and individuals facing divorce, co-parenting, grief, and loss. My goal is to help clients build resilience and develop healthier relationships with themselves and others. My communication style I believe open and honest communication is the cornerstone of effective therapy. My approach is collaborative and empathetic, creating a safe space where clients can express themselves without judgment. I actively listen and validate clients’ experiences, encouraging them to share thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Together, we explore challenges and develop strategies for growth. I strive to make each session supportive and empowering.
