Hi, thanks for landing here! I’m Kari.
A little about me:
I love traveling, especially exploring new cities, experiencing different cultures, and spending time near the ocean.
I am always reading something, whether it is a therapy or personal growth book, a spiritual read, or a fiction novel to unwind.
I recharge best with quiet time at home, journaling, working out, and spending time outside in the sun.
I value personal growth and believe curiosity and self reflection are lifelong practices.
People are often surprised by my sense of humor and I believe laughter can coexist with deep, meaningful work.
I am drawn to creating calm, cozy spaces where people feel safe to be themselves.
How clients experience me.
Clients often share that they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease in sessions with me.
They describe feeling supported in having vulnerable conversations, while also appreciating that therapy with me can include moments of lightness and humor.
Clients often tell me they feel truly listened to and that I create a comfortable, safe space where they can just be themselves.
I’m told that I’m able to hold space for deeper emotional work while still helping sessions feel human, grounded, and approachable.
Clients experience me as steady, compassionate, and clear. I help make sense of overwhelming emotions while offering practical tools and guidance for lasting change.
The clients I work best with.
I work best with people who are:
Individuals and couples who are motivated for self-growth and curious about their inner world.
Those who feel stuck in relationship patterns, struggle with boundaries or people-pleasing, experience anxiety or trauma-related stress, or want to build healthier, more secure relationships.
Clients ready to value insight, reflection, and learning practical tools they can apply outside of session.
If you’re ready to move forward and want to get to the root, we’ll be a great fit.
