Who am I?

I am a compassionate person with a Master’s Degree in counseling from NYU.With years of experience as a counselor I bring deep insights into the emotional world of tweens and teens. My journey in counseling inspired me to create Bouncing Back with Karen Brisport. I choose the subjects that help bridge an understanding between parents , educators, tween and teens.

What is my podcast playlist about?

I choose the podcast playlist based on the need for parents and educators to shape a child’s future.Both parents and educators connect with a child in different ways.You both provide support that make a child feel safe , understood and successful.
