Getting to know Karen Pena

I would like to help you navigate feelings of being overwhelmed, worried, stressed, or a lack of joy. The profound changes in how we live and connect have significantly impacted our coping mechanisms. It can be exhausting to prioritize self-care and understand personal needs while also attending to the demands of others. Therapy can serve as a valuable tool for reconnecting with yourself, identifying your needs, and ensuring you are attuned to and addressing them. My experience at New York Presbyterian Hospital and Columbia University, two highly respected institutions in the U.S., has equipped me with the opportunity to apply cutting-edge interventions and evidence-based therapy practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Based Therapy, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is centered on listening to your unique needs, helping you identify your personal goals, providing you with the necessary tools for growth, and offering unwavering support throughout your journey. I invite you to connect with me so we can discuss how therapy can support you in finding greater well-being and joy.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Provide talk therapy services after full assessment of clinical needs and treatment planning on identified and agreed upon goals to begin your healing journey.
