NOTE: I currently have daytime availability. Hello! Maybe you're here because you want to be happy, but anxiety or depression is getting in the way. You try to stay positive...yet your thoughts seem to get stuck in repetitive negative patterns. You dwell on things, maybe so much that it effects your mood, sleep, self-esteem, relationships and even your health. You never really have that overall sense of contentment and well-being that you know is possible. Maybe you already know what would help and are having trouble implementing it. Maybe you need new ideas.

Are you using harmful behaviors or habits to deal with difficult emotions or situations? How would you describe your relationship with yourself? With others? Loving yourself is essential to your mental health and wellbeing. When we lack the ability to express and experience love in an authentic way, we can feel a sense of disconnection to ourselves and others. Fears begin to drive our decisions and behaviors, leading to consequences that can be difficult to manage. Cultivating self-love motivates our positive emotions and behaviors, while reducing our negative ones. Love is more powerful than fear. Take your power back, choose love.

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.

**Currently full** Whatever the issue you’re struggling with in this moment, I know it’s monumental. You may feel sad, anxious, lonely, helpless and scared in all the uncertainty of life. The unknown can feel empty and scary. Looking at relationships with others for support can be helpful, unless you feel disconnected, unheard or misunderstood. In all of the struggle, trying to understand yourself can feel overwhelming as life becomes too big to handle. And then what?

Psychotherapy can be a powerful tool of transformation, and an opportunity to gain a better handle on the sources of suffering in one's life.

I honor the depth and complexity of every client's unique personality, and put great care into listening deeply, asking the right questions, and creating a relaxed therapeutic atmosphere characterized by honesty, open-mindedness, and non-judgmental curiosity.
