About me

Hi there! I am glad you took this step towards healing and growth. Whatever your specific struggles are, I can help lead you towards their resolution. My approach is to create a safe and grounded space for you, while getting to the root of your issue. Healing from a foundational place will create lasting changes over time. As we uncover these deeper layers, I make sure that you feel grounded and maintain a sense of calm and safety. My goal is to help you heal, grow, become more resilient and feel confident in facing whatever life may present to you in the future. I also work with you to help you move from simply surviving to actually thriving. I look forward to beginning this journey with you.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have a master's degree in counselor education. I have experience in anxiety and trauma counseling, and have run anxiety groups in the past. I utilize a holistic approach to therapy and pull from multiple counseling disciplines in order to tailor the therapy for each individual. Some of these include: Emotion-Focused Therapy, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, ACT, DBT, Existential Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Mindfulness, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Schema Therapy. For those who request it, I am also able to provide counseling which integrates psychological principles with Christian theology and biblical teachings.

Cara has consistently demonstrated an exceptional level of support, tailored to my unique needs throughout our sessions. She has consistently offered insightful feedback that is clearly grounded in her extensive knowledge and wealth of experience. This has proven invaluable to my progress, and I value her perspective, placing trust in her guidance. Given these outstanding qualities, I would recommend her to anyone seeking counseling and supportive guidance on their personal journey of self-discovery and healing.

Cara has been an incredible support to me during a very difficult time in my life. Her guidance has helped me gain clarity and respond to challenges in a healthy way. She has not only helped me improve my communication but also deepened my understanding of both my emotions and those of others. She does all of this with such compassion, honesty, and a straightforward approach that makes everything easier to grasp. I’m truly grateful for her kindness and wisdom.

Helps me take a step back and make sense of things that were otherwise very overwhelming.

Cara is my first “official” therapist. I’m so pleased with this experience; she really gives great feedback. Every time I leave a session I have an “Aha!” moment and it’s just been great overall!
