Hi, I’m Kari. I work with adults who are carrying a lot and trying to function through it anyway. Maybe your mind keeps jumping to worst case scenarios, your body feels on edge, or life has changed in ways you did not ask for. For some people, that looks like medical anxiety, chronic illness, or fear around health. For others, it is grief, divorce, custody stress, or the emotional whiplash of a life transition that has turned everything upside down. Therapy can be a place to slow things down and get your footing again.
I support adults navigating anxiety, chronic illness, medical trauma, grief, stress, divorce, custody concerns, and major life changes. Many people come in feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or like fear has been running the show for too long. Together, we work on the stress of what is happening now and how it is affecting daily life.
I am warm, steady, and practical in the room. You do not need to come in with a perfectly worded explanation for why things feel hard. We can start with what has been weighing on you most and work from there. My hope is that therapy helps you feel less consumed by fear, more able to cope with change, and more grounded in yourself when life feels uncertain.
