About Karem
Karem Garza-Solis is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. She brings 11 years of experience working with issues like mood struggles, addiction concerns, and life changes. Her work is grounded in respect and steady support.
She creates a calm, non-judgmental space where people can talk through painful feelings. Sessions focus on building everyday coping skills and practical steps you can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Karem listens for strengths and helps clients notice what already works for them. Her approach blends straightforward problem solving with attention to values and relationships. She often uses techniques that help manage panic, ease social anxiety, and reduce symptoms of mood disorders.
Conversations also address guilt, shame, and rebuilding self-esteem after hard experiences. Karem pays attention to cultural context and the real pressures of caregiving and blended family life. She supports clients dealing with communication breakdowns, separation, and caregiving stress.
Parenting concerns are part of her practice when individuals want help balancing role demands and relationships. She works in English and Spanish and offers a warm, collaborative style. People who prefer practical tools paired with reflective conversation tend to find her approach helpful.
Karem encourages small, achievable steps so progress feels real and manageable.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their values and take small actions that matter. It uses practical exercises to reduce avoidance and build a life guided by what is important rather than by fear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-world experiments. It emphasizes specific tools for anxiety, panic, and mood challenges so clients can see measurable change in how they think and behave. Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk through options, try techniques together, and adjust based on your needs and goals. That collaborative pace helps match methods to what feels useful in daily life. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls let you work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when you want written reminders of skills to practice. These online formats support regular, consistent work on stress, parenting challenges, and emotional coping without needing travel time. Therapists can guide practice, review exercises, and help you apply tools between sessions.Questions people ask about Karem
