Karishma traditionally is a CBT psychotherapist who also utilizes other forms of techniques and therapies as they pertain to the client’s needs to achieve a successful treatment. She believes that a good therapist is someone who is the client’s cheerleader, but also provides the hard truths. Karishma applies that support in her client’s life, to help, heal, empower and move forward in positive directions.
When not counseling, Karishma values her time with her family, making memories with her husband and two kids. Some of Karishma’s favorite activities are traveling, trying new restaurants or simply watching her favorite shows at home with a cup of coffee at hand.
