About Nusrat
Nusrat Karim is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She aims to reduce mental health stigma and bring awareness to the communities she serves. Nusrat frames therapy as a way to move through difficult experiences and to support healing for individuals and families.
Nusrat trained at Florida International University, where she completed her master’s degree. She has 12 years of experience working with people facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and struggles with coping during life changes. Her background also includes work with conduct and adjustment concerns and social skills challenges.
Her main approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral methods, which focus on changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. She combines this with client-centered techniques, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and mindfulness practices to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.
Nusrat emphasizes clear communication and active listening in sessions. She works to build rapport quickly, listens without judgment, and brings empathy and honesty to conversations. That practical style aims to help people identify steps they can take between visits.
In session, she helps people address family and parenting stress, relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, and life-purpose questions. She also supports work on forgiveness, guilt and shame, managing control issues, and reducing isolation and social anxiety. Nusrat welcomes working with people who want straightforward, skills-based support.
How her approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a strong working relationship so people feel heard and understood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Nusrat will work with the person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and life situation, reviewing what feels useful and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
