Karen Resendez

Hello and welcome! 

My name is Karen R. Resendez, and I am a Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP) at the Texas Counseling Center in the Pearland location, practicing under the supervision of Cynthia Rojas, MS, LPC. I earned my Master of Art in Family Therapy at the University of Houston- Clear Lake. 

Born and raised in Houston, Texas, I am fluent in both English and Spanish

I have a deep passion for working with children, teens, young adults, and couples navigating life’s challenges. My experience as a Registered Behavior Therapist (RBT) has given me the opportunity to work closely with children and teens with Autism, which has further fueled my dedication to this work.

Through my counseling journey I have working with individuals with trauma, ADHD Depression. 

The therapeutic style I practice are Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Each individual is unique which is why I focus on creating the correct treatment plan for each with the appropriate needs, goals tailored to everyone. 

My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

I understand that beginning counseling can feel overwhelming, but with the right support, healing and growth are possible. My purpose is to walk alongside you, helping you recognize and build on your strengths as you face life’s curveballs. You are the author of your own story—and I would be honored to be a part of your journey. Let’s uncover your strength together.
