Hey, I’m Karis.
I’m a licensed professional counselor.
I work with individuals of all ages who are experiencing grief, navigating life transitions, and recovering from trauma.
My Approach
Trauma-Informed
It is easy to fall into survival mode without even realizing it. When we experience trauma and chronic stress, it becomes our normal. Understanding this sets the foundation to learn new ways of caring for ourselves and connecting with our loved ones.
Self-Compassion
“Give yourself grace.” You will probably hear me say this over and over again. I believe having compassion for yourself is an important aspect of therapy. Re-writing your shame narrative into one that is resilient will serve you much more in this process.
“I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.”
-Maya Angelou

I accept insurance from Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, Cigna, and Aetna.
Please contact your insurance company ahead of time to verify that your plan covers behavioral health services.
If your insurance plan does not specifically include behavioral health benefits, consider asking for out of network benefits. I can provide a superbill for reimbursement.

This really varies depending on the person and the issue(s) we are addressing in therapy. Some individuals find themselves completing therapy in 3-4 months, while others want more long-term care. Either way, my door is always open.
