Hi! I'm Kara with Wise Roots Therapy. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in EMDR, perinatal mental health, complex trauma, and mood concerns. Are you pregnant, postpartum, or grieving a loss? Maybe you're a new parent feeling overwhelmed, or noticing how your past shows up in ways you didn’t expect. If you're carrying sadness, anxiety, rage, disconnection, or want to feel more present and grounded- we might be a good fit. I'd love to learn more about you and your story.
I blend EMDR, parts work (IFS), somatic tools, and attachment-based approaches. I often ask, 'Where do you feel that in your body?' because our bodies carry so much of what we've been through. I find joy in supporting new moms who want to deepen self-understanding, create more space for themselves, re-parent themselves with compassion, & heal from trauma.
While my weekly openings are limited, I am currently accepting new EMDR intensive clients. If you're looking to reconnect with your body, let go of what no longer serves you, and embrace a path toward healing and resilience- reach out! Email or call to schedule a free 20-minute consultation to see what feels like the right next step for you.
