Karina Llizo

About

Hello, my name is Karina Llizo and I am currently a licensed social worker practicing with Positive Reset Eatontown. I have spent the majority of my career working with children and families.

I have worked as a preschool teacher in my early years, as a registered behavioral technician, and now as a licensed therapist.

I have always had a strong passion for working with people on the individual level to help them reach their goals.

My educational background is a bachelor’s in psychology, a bachelor’s in human services and family studies, and a master’s of Social Work.

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages but have a strong inclination toward young adults, adolescents and children.

More about Laura

My ideal client is an individual who is motivated to create change in their lives. I am open to working with clients who possess a variety of issues as long as they are willing to be active participants in the change process. A client who requires support, guidance, and individually fitted intervention.

Most importantly, a client who is willing to learn and grow, through the process that the therapeutic setting offers. A client who wishes to be heavily involved in their therapeutic process yields the most effective results in the end.
