Hi, I’m Kiara I work with couples who feel disconnected and frustrated with each other. Too many couples are stuck arguing all the time without resolving anything. This leaves many couples feeling detached from each other, falling out of love, and even feeling numb towards their partner. I believe most problems in relationships can be solved through healthy communication skills and by getting back on the same page. BUT that can be so hard to do on your own.

My approach to therapy is to respectfully understand you, celebrate your strengths, and work with you as a collaborative partner. I have a warm, encouraging, and empathetic style, and I incorporate different approaches to fit your individual needs. As a trauma specialist, I can help alleviate your experiences of anxiety, depression, family and relationship issues and other life complications. l look forward to working with you to help you understand your options, build on your inner wisdom and resolve your difficulties. I am practical and warm and will help you develop solutions to life’s many challenges.

As a licensed psychologist and clinical neuropsychologist, I have over 22 years of experience working as a therapist, evaluator, and consultant. My work with Hope and Healing involves providing support to individuals aged 16 and up who are experiencing a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, loneliness, and major life transitions. With a firm grounding in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I believe that effective therapy is only possible through the establishment of a mutually respectful, honest, and nonjudgmental therapeutic partnership.

One of the greatest honors I have in life is to walk with those who are struggling with emotional pain and trauma. I have dedicated my life to helping others, advocating through systems, and empowering individuals to build confidence in order to create positive change. If you or your children are struggling with trauma, overwhelming stress, parenting, grief and loss, or other matters that are interfering with your daily functioning, I commend you for taking the first step in living a more balanced, happier life.
