Being passionate about people has put me in the position to see a variety of facets of life. I have seen pain and heartache. I have seen beautiful people sit in defeat and death. Death of dreams.

I want to partner with you as you seek out this hope and look for your beginning.

Since 1992, Christian Perspective Counseling has provided biblical help for people in the midst of the storm or struggling to find its meaning through the practice of psychology from a distinctive Christian point of view.

My path to becoming a therapist was more of a calling than a career decision. I’m not particularly suited to this profession. I’m introverted, which causes me to present as somewhat unfriendly and aloof to strangers. I’m really not concerned with small talk or what I consider the superficialities of life. But when it comes to exploring the deepest, most difficult and painful core aspects of your life that’s the space where I feel most comfortable. The foundation of my practice is my own personal journey in 12-step recovery. I would say I was "chosen" for the gift of recovery from a self-destructive lifestyle more than 34 years ago.

Hello - I’m so glad you stumbled upon my profile! My name is Karrah Seitz and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor serving Northeast Arkansas. I have approximately nine years of experience in counseling in outpatient, school-based, private practice, and supervisory settings. I am TF-CBT certified, ACT certified, EMDR trained, and have a Technology-Assisted Specialization for clients not within driving distance to the office. Utilizing these methods to maximize treatment effectiveness, I specialize in treating teens and young adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and body image and self-esteem concerns.

I started my journey to provide counseling, in hopes of helping those who wanted to make changes, but just couldn't quite put the pieces together. Those who felt that there could be a light at the end of the tunnel, but were stuck in the darkness of their own thoughts. With a little guidance and support, one day they could reach that light and learn how to live again.

Life doesn’t come with a set of instructions. Sometimes we find that what we are doing is no longer working in the way we want it to. We may find ourselves experiencing work problems, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, difficulties reaching goals, issues with parenting, grief, or just feeling like life isn’t what we want it to be. I help clients identify and build on their current strengths, while identifying ways to strengthen and build on areas that may be more challenging. It is my intention to create a safe space for clients to process their experiences, share their challenges, and find the best path forward.

With extensive experience working with individuals of all ages, I have a meaningful understanding of the unique challenges and developmental stages faced by adults, children, and adolescents. Whether you're an adult seeking personal growth, a parent navigating family dynamics, or a teenager facing the complexities of adolescence, I am committed to providing compassionate and effective therapeutic support. I have assisted people experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and many other life challenges. I love to advocate for people from a holistic approach to improve overall well-being.

Intimacy/Sexual issues can be difficult to discuss and people are reluctant. In fact, many people struggle with feelings of inadequacy/lack of fulfillment in relation to their sexual experience. Sexual dysfunctions affect both men and women. My desire is to help people struggling with sexual problems and to help people live a more fulfilled intimacy/sexual life. I provide a non-judgmental place for people to safely articulate their concerns. I will help you figure out what is causing these struggles and help resolve them. In addition to sexual issues, I also work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD and other issues.
