Getting to know Karen Torres Gonzalez

My name is Karen Torres-Gonzalez, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in San Bernardino County. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. Using the telehealth platform, I now have the opportunity to serve consumers throughout the state of California. I take a strengths-based and client-centered approach, and I am incredibly grateful to be able to serve others. My approach I use an eclectic approach in therapy, drawing from a variety of theoretical orientations including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused, Positive Psychology, Narrative, and Mindfulness techniques. I am also certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My focus My focus in therapy is to help others alleviate suffering and find solutions to manage problems. I find great joy in helping adults navigate relational problems, life stressors, and adjusting to transitions. I also assist people in managing symptoms of anxiety and depression by allowing them to process their experienced trauma and teaching coping skills. I believe it is important to help others recognize their inherent strengths and focus on their positive attributes. My communication style Open communication is very important in a therapeutic setting. I communicate honestly and openly in sessions. I listen with empathy and am present and fully engaged. My journey to therapy The healing nature of therapy is such a profound experience, and I feel honored to be a part of it. I became a therapist to help others along their path of discovery and self-actualization. My goals for you Goal setting is critical in the therapy process. I collaboratively create goals with my clients because I am working with them to achieve these goals. If a client has several difficulties and feels overwhelmed, I help identify an overarching goal or a target goal that we can work on together.
