About Our Founder

Dr. Karen Pollard is a licensed clinical psychologist with a specialization in neuropsychology, so she understands, at a deep level, the complex and unique ways that a person's brain processes information. Karen earned her doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of La Verne in Los Angeles, California. She then specialized in clinical neuropsychology at the University of Virginia.

She has over a decade of experience in neuropsychology and has worked with thousands of people to help them gain a greater understanding of how their brain works and offer them individualized suggestions for how to maximize their brain’s potential.

About three years ago she founded Brain Power Advisors where she uses a 3-step process to help leaders and leadership teams unlock the unique processing power of their brain in order to increase efficiency and reduce stress.  In her personal life, Dr. Pollard is the married mother of two young daughters.  She is also an adventurer; she was recently part of a group that raised funds to start a cervical cancer screening clinic in Tanzania and while there, she and her team climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. In her spare time, she enjoys swimming, playing the piano, and playing poker.
