I’m Karen Moore, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Social Worker with more than 25 years of combined experience supporting individuals, families, and communities through healing, growth, and meaningful change. My work blends decades of social‐work practice with clinical counseling expertise, giving me a deep understanding of how life experiences, relationships, and environments shape emotional wellness.

My approach is warm, affirming, and empowering. I create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment—and explore the patterns, emotions, and experiences that matter most. I specialize in trauma‐informed care and use evidence‐based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Trauma‐Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Problem‐Solving Therapy. Together, we’ll build practical tools that help you navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life transitions with greater clarity and confidence.

In our first session, we’ll focus on understanding your story, identifying your strengths, and clarifying your goals. My role is to walk alongside you, offering support, insight, and strategies that help you feel grounded, capable, and connected to your own resilience.

If you’re looking for a therapist who brings compassion, experience, and a steady presence to the work, I’d be honored to support you on your healing journey.

Something that stands out in regard to me is that I have gathered some valuable wisdom over the years from many excellent mentors and life experience as an educator, vocational ministry, raising my own family, and having worked with many gifted and compassionate people.

My clients describe me as understanding ("getting them as individuals"), caring and collaborative , and a safe place to share what they need to share.

Welcome! I’m Dr. Leticia Gonzalez-Castro, a dedicated mental health professional and educator with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients of all ages—from young children to adults—navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, family dynamics, and educational hurdles. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Houston and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Management from Saint Thomas University, Florida, blending deep clinical understanding with strategic, advocate-minded care. My passion lies in empowering individuals and strengthening communities, and I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward growth and healing.

For the last 8 years, I've had the privilege of helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, family challenges, and the moments in life that leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself. I also support concerns including grief, OCD, panic, ADHD, and identity. My work is grounded in the belief that healing involves the whole person—mind and body. I bring warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor into therapy while helping you recognize your strengths and create meaningful change. As Brene Brown says, "You can choose courage, or you can choose comfort. You can't have both".

I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

Since 2016, I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, including outpatient health clinics.

Throughout my experience, I’ve had the opportunity to work with individuals from different backgrounds and with a variety of needs.

Welcome — I’m glad you’re here. I work with clients who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained, and I provide a supportive space to better understand what’s going on and begin making meaningful changes.
