Karin Pleasant, LCSW
She/Her
Karin is a Therapist at Two Chairs.
Mental health became her field of choice after realizing how writing and dancing helped her through challenging times in her life. Being more intentional about learning the connection between physical and emotional wellness and how to develop beliefs about what is possible individually and collectively made her want to find ways to help others. Her therapeutic style is client-centered and solution-focused to understand issues from the individual's point of view and develop treatment based on client-identified goals.
In her free time, Karin is a drummer, dancer, choreographer, and recreational aerialist.
