About Karem
Karem Garza-Solis is an LCSW licensed in Utah with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and life transitions. Her work also covers relationship and family issues, parenting, addiction, grief, and blended family issues.
She focuses on practical skills and clear steps people can use between sessions. Conversations often include coping techniques, ways to notice unhelpful thoughts, and strategies for improving communication. Sessions are collaborative and aim to build resilience and steadier emotional responses.
Karem draws on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, among other client-centered practices. She uses these approaches to help people reduce panic, manage social anxiety, and address shame or low self-esteem. The therapist also supports those facing caregiver stress and multicultural concerns.
People meet to talk through what’s happening now and to try out different ways of responding. She pays attention to patterns that keep problems going and to skills that interrupt them. Practical homework or small experiments between meetings are common when helpful.
Karem works with adults who want concrete tools for handling emotions, improving communication, or adjusting to a new family arrangement. She speaks English and Spanish and practices in Utah. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats that fit your needs.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and still move toward valued actions. It is often used for anxiety, life changes, and stress that get in the way of daily goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly used for panic, social anxiety, and mood concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That conversation guides whether ACT, CBT, DBT skills, or client-centered ways of working are tried first, and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed.
Confirm current session formats before booking since none are specified in the original biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain regular contact with a therapist while balancing parenting, work, and caregiving demands.
