About Karin

Dr. Karin Celosse is a California psychologist who focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or lost. She meets people where they are and treats them as the expert on their own life.

She emphasizes practical steps to help clients see a path forward and make clearer choices about what they want next. Her work begins with listening and understanding each person's values and goals. She uses a client-centered, strengths-based stance and will gently challenge patterns that no longer serve the person.

Background and approach

The therapy room is offered as a place to talk through thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and to try new ways of coping. Dr. Celosse brings seven years of clinical experience and a background that includes work in community mental health and forensic settings.

She has experience supporting people facing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, addictions, grief, and mood disorders. She also has worked with people dealing with chronic medical conditions, caregiving stress, and major life transitions. Her sessions draw from several practical methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, and client-centered approaches.

These techniques are used to help people change unhelpful patterns and build skills they can use outside sessions. Dr. Celosse practices in California as CA Psychologist 29839.

She offers services in English and Swedish and is open to working with international clients. Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Existential therapy helps people consider meaning, choice, and what matters most in their lives; it can be useful when someone is facing loss, big transitions, or questions about purpose. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning practical skills to accept difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic conditions. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships shape expectations and patterns, and they help people notice relationship habits and try new ways of connecting.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and will suggest methods that suit your needs. This is a collaborative process, and plans can be adjusted as you learn what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or be used when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, practicing skills between sessions, or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
