KARYNA CAPOTE

KARYNA CAPOTE, MCP, RCC

My work is focused on helping my clients discover their internal strengths and encouraging their personal growth. Using both intuitive and practical, down-to-earth approaches, I help my clients resolve their situation and relieve their pain.

By carefully listening to my clients’ stories, I help them discover within themselves the answers they are looking for. I help my clients set realistic goals and provide guidance in obtaining the results they hope for. Through interactive experiments, my clients integrate what they learn in sessions, into their lives, which ensures lasting positive changes.

Having lived and worked in three different countries helps me understand different situations and connect with different cultures. Extensive life and work experience allows me to see situations from different perspectives and help my clients find creative solutions. I am fluent in both Russian and Spanish and I provide services in these languages. 

My medical background and experience working in the social system help my clients ensure they get the best care wherever they go. I help my clients advocate for themselves and their loved ones and have their voices heard.
