Hello, my name is Cara. I am EMDR trained. I enjoy working with all clients, including those in the LGBTQIA+ community. I prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients and my goal is to help clients navigate through their own therapeutic process and life experiences. I believe the connection between the client and therapist is of great importance to develop trust and an environment where meaningful work can be done. I find my approach is eclectic, tailoring treatment to the client and pulling from a Strength Based, Person-Centered, Mindfulness, and Affirmative approach.
