Introduction

Hello! I'm Kara (she/her) and I've been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for almost twenty years. I have a soft spot in my heart for working with the worried well, hopelessly lost, and just plain stuck people of the world. I even have a significant amount of advanced training to help people who are struggling with sex and intimacy! I want to help my clients improve any area of their life that feels stagnant or stale or broken. Therapy should be a safe place where you can lay it all out there. You and I will labor together to try to make sense of that messiness. Then we will team up to help you to create the change you desire. My style of therapy is conversational and collaborative, with the foundation of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) guiding my interventions. I've heard it all and I'm not here to judge or criticize. I am here to help. My office is a safe space where you can get support to figure out what's holding you back and how to move forward. Life is too short to for you to keep this cycle going. I have worked with my clients to find growth, healing, confidence, and acceptance in their lives. I would love to be a part of your journey to help you to understand your feelings, to feel satisfied with your sex life, to lift your mood, and more. My sessions take place Monday through Friday during the daytime. I accept clients both virtually as well as in person.
