Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or be anxious, sad, or angry all the time. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to be your authentic self and have someone walk along side you in this journey. Addressing mental health and substance use concerns can be difficult even if it's not new to you. Whether you are a parent looking for help for your adolescent, a first responder being impacted by your job, or someone wanting relief, I am here to help!

I incorporate my experience at Meridell Achievement Center, which includes working with high-risk individuals that struggled with suicidal ideation/ self-harm/ aggression/ severe depression and anxiety/ and family and social conflict, into my therapeutic technique. Yet, I will work with your unique story by exploring your struggles and unhealthy coping mechanisms to find the turning point that can be reversed using cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focus therapy techniques. I use my unique observation techniques to help them discover both healthy and mal-adaptive sub-conscious patterns.

Hi, I'm Karli. :) I'm so glad you're here! I am passionate about working with people who want a safe and sex-positive environment to grow individually and relationally in their sexuality and eroticism. I often work with people who feel hopeless about their sex life, relationship conflict, or dating insecurities, or who have internalized sexual shame keeping them from exploring their pleasure and desires. I also work with people experiencing sexual dysfunction and pain. If you are feeling insecure or hopeless, I would love to help show you just how common and valid your experiences are.

It's important to find a space where your feelings are not just heard, but deeply understood and empathetically acknowledged. I am both naturally empathetic and curious; these two qualities create a strong desire to understand the inner workings of every person I meet. In therapy, I work adolescents (14 +), individuals (18+), families, and couples seeking help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, people- pleasing, life transitions, college issues, parenting concerns, interpersonal issues, young adult concerns, and relationship concerns to achieve overall wellness and wholeness.

In life you can feel like everyone is doing better than you are. You may be looking around, comparing yourself to others and wonder, “Why am I not as happy as everyone else? What am I doing wrong? Am I to blame? Am I not good enough? Is my body broken, my mind, or my heart?” I specialize in working with people who often find that no matter how hard they try, they feel like they are never good enough. This may be during a break up, job transition, infertility, during the changes of pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood, or even during traumatic grief and loss. Starting therapy can be one of the bravest things you can do.

My heart breaks every time I see couples who are stuck and running out of hope. "What's going on?" "The world says we're supposed to be okay being alone, but I feel miserable and alone." "What happened to us?" "How did we get here?" "We were never supposed to be those ‘other couples’." Relationships can become painful and unsettling. And so disappointing. The good news is relationship injuries can be repaired. And, you can have the hopes and dreams you’ve long since dismissed as a pleasant fantasy.

Welcome to my page! If you are here, you are likely in the process of making the significant decision of choosing a therapist. I know how important it is to have a safe space to heal and grow. A space where you are heard, accepted, and cared for in a comfortable, safe environment without judgment or criticism. I believe the client-therapist relationship is crucial to growth and change. I am ready to meet you where you are and support you in doing the hard work to build the safety necessary to reach this goal.
