About Maureen Karol

Maureen Karol is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 21 years of experience working across community mental health settings and private practice. She has provided care in mobile crisis teams, substance abuse services, and offers individual, couples, and family therapy.

Maureen approaches therapy with a practical, step-by-step orientation and a clear motto - to help clients "make life simple again." She helps people break complex problems into manageable parts, guiding them to reframe concerns more objectively when emotion has made situations feel overwhelming. By organizing issues into actionable pieces, she aims to reduce anxiety and make decision making feel easier.

She frames therapy as a learning process that can feel uncomfortable at times and empowering at others. Humor is often used in sessions to bring levity into difficult conversations. Maureen describes her role as a co-pilot - the client remains in charge while she provides guidance, respect, and a steady presence throughout the work. Her practice addresses areas such as stress, anxiety, relationships, family and parenting challenges, self esteem, addictions, LGBT issues, bipolar and mood disorders, depression, and coping with life changes.

Maureen looks forward to collaborating with clients to explore concerns, identify clear next steps, and discover practical ways to move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Maureen commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective patterns - it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered method that helps people resolve ambivalence and find internal motivation for change - it is often used with substance use concerns and when clients are weighing difficult life decisions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maureen works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity of care across locations, and make it easier to integrate therapy into a busy life. Maureen aims to use these formats to provide focused, accessible support that aligns with each client's routine and goals.
