About me
Life can present challenges in dynamic ways. Having appropriate and valuable supports and tools can help us navigate these hardships. I believe that healing is a collaborative endeavor that requires honesty, trust, compassion and non judgement. Know that you do not have to do it alone. Deciding to engage professional support is a courageous stride in prioritizing your health and well being.
As a social work professional, I provide compassionate, client centered therapy. I am passionate about helping others realize their fullest potential. “The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches, but to reveal to him his own” -Benjamin Desraeli.
My background includes work in community mental health and healthcare networks. I have worked with individuals and families, including children, adults and elderly populations. I draw from a variety of evidenced based practices and interventions to create a tailored approach for each individual and situation.
I am open, encouraging, warm and direct, combining my experience, education, creativity, and down to earth personality in my therapy approach.
I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Khara Harper. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Khara is simply amazing! I feel like I could vent to her without feeling judged
