About Kari

Anxiety. Depression. Panic. Rage. Heartbreak. They make life feel chaotic, frightening, and lonely. Intense emotions can seem to take over our bodies completely. We might lunge into anger or spiral into self-doubt and not know how to get ourselves out. But it doesn't have to be that way! Here's how life could feel instead: like you have easy access to your kind, calm and rational thoughts; you have stable close relationships, and all the motivation you need to create the life you want.

I help people create the lives they desire in a world they can live in. What I do best is help you reconnect to yourself, and resolve any pain or pollution that’s blocking you from manifesting your intentions.

My therapeutic technique is a holistic blend of Ancestral Healing, Shadow Work, Transpersonal Psychology, Polyvagal Theory, Compassionate Inquiry, Inner Child Work, and Post-Traumatic Growth. My practice is Progressive, Intersectionally Feminist, Pro-Choice, Anti-Racist, Queer, Trans, Poly, and Sex Worker friendly.
