WELCOME!

My name is Karla J. Girón and I am a 3rd year PhD student in Counseling Psychology at Arizona State University (ASU). I completed my undergraduate journey in December of 2018 with a B.S. in Psychology (Behavioral & Cognitive Neuroscience) and a B.A. in Anthropology from the University of Florida (UF). In 2021, I earned my M.S. in Family, Youth and Community Sciences from my alma mater. I am a 1.5 generation immigrant hailing from Panama, hoping to make a difference within the Latinx community by reducing health disparities through my research and clinical work. Though my general lifetime experiences have certainly shaped who I am today, my growth as a leader, individual, and global citizen is ongoing. By creating this portfolio I hope to show you how these experiences continue to change me and my work. Feel free to explore each section of my journey.
