Hi! I’m Karina A. McCollum — Psychologist, author, and mental health advocate. I write stories that help children understand their emotions and feel safe expressing them.

As a bilingual therapist, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it is when kids feel seen and heard in both languages.
Through gentle storytelling, I hope to open up important conversations about feelings, therapy, and healing — at home, in school, or wherever little hearts are learning to grow.
