I’m Glad You’re Here!
Hi, I’m Karen Rocchio, LMFT! I received a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Bryant University and a Graduate Degree in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of Rhode Island. I love learning and continue to take extensive advanced trainings. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and a Consultant in Training. Along with EMDR, I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) extensively, Image Transformation (ImTT), and the Flash technique. Check out the Therapy Approaches tab for information on these modalities. I also have a special interest in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy (PAP) for its profound ability to help access and heal trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD, and more, that gets stuck beyond conscious awareness. Visit the Retreat tab to learn more about my upcoming psychedelic retreats!
I am incredibly passionate about partnering with clients in a holistic approach as they move towards healing, wellness, and wholeness.
I’m licensed in North and South Carolina, and telehealth licensed in Florida. I see clients in office and virtually.
When I’m not in the office, I’m traveling, playing tennis, doing yoga, trying new restaurants with friends, or relaxing with my family and pets.
