About

Karen Buroff is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience working as a social worker and clinician. She has supported people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, PTSD and other trauma-related conditions, chronic and persistent mental illness, self-esteem and relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. She has extensive experience working with military members - both active duty service members and veterans - and has also assisted many individuals who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse in both combat and non-combat contexts.

Karen’s therapeutic approach is warm and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Her work is consistently trauma-informed, and she integrates evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with trauma-informed practices (ARC-trained) and mind-body resilience techniques (as an MBRT Master Trainer).

She maintains a client-focused, strengths-based orientation and tailors conversations and treatment plans to meet each person’s specific needs. Karen aims to create a collaborative space where clients can build practical skills and greater resilience.

Seeking change takes courage, and Karen is committed to supporting and empowering people who are ready to take that first step toward a more fulfilling life. She looks forward to working with new clients in California and beyond.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether remote therapy can actually help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.

A major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the mode that suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to fit consistent care into a busy schedule.

All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients can switch therapists at any time if they want a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical and accessible way to get support for everyday mental health needs.
