About Karen
LMFT in California with 6 years of experience, Karen Ann Marshalleck helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. She practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy and uses those methods to guide conversations and plan small, practical steps forward.
Karen keeps sessions straightforward. She helps people name what’s most worrying them, notice thought patterns, and test different responses. She uses short-term, goal-focused techniques alongside cognitive tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
When relationships or family matters are central, she focuses on communication skills and clearer boundaries. For mood and anxiety concerns she works on managing symptoms with concrete strategies and by setting achievable goals. She also addresses body image, chronic pain or illness, codependency, isolation, and workplace strain as part of the broader picture.
Her work acknowledges how prejudice and multicultural issues affect mental health. She talks with clients about how identity and social stressors shape feelings and choices. The approach is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
Practical matters are part of sessions. She helps people build routines and coping plans they can use between meetings. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. In practice this means tracking thoughts, trying small behavior experiments, and reviewing what changed. It helps with anxiety, mood problems, and managing stress.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small, measurable changes. Sessions focus on goals, what’s already working, and next actions clients can try between meetings. This approach fits people who want short-term, action-oriented work.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to decide which methods match a person’s goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and goals change.
