Karin "Careen" Hartunian Koukeyan, MS, CCC-SLP

Hi! I’m Karin "Careen" Hartunian Koukeyan, a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist with training and experience across the lifespan. Over the years, I’ve worked in clinical settings, schools, telepractice, private practice helping clients overcome their communication challenges. I have practiced via telehealth for over 15 years.

I believe therapy should be patient-centered, practical, and culturally responsive. Every family brings unique strengths, and I work to honor those while tailoring strategies to meet each client’s needs. My background as a bilingual speech language pathologist working with multiple languages and cultures helps me connect with diverse communities and provide therapy that feels relevant and meaningful. I’m passionate about bridging gaps in communication access, empowering clients to use their voices in school, work, and social settings, and guiding families through every step of the therapy process. Families often tell me they appreciate my ability to make therapy fun while keeping clients focused on their goals. I strive to make every session not only effective, but also motivating and enjoyable.

When I’m not working, you can usually find me cooking new ethnic dishes for my family or creating short stories to share with my writing group. Fun fact: I once climbed Mt. Whitney.
