About me

Hello! I'm Cara. Are you struggling with taking care of your everyday needs and managing day-to-day tasks? At times, do you feel anxious, tired, or even depressed? Do you feel overwhelmed by all of the things you need to do? I help adults find balance, build structure and develop solutions in their everyday lives to decrease that feeling of overwhelm and find more energy. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or stress, I am here to help. Be proud of yourself for reaching out for support. In our sessions together, I will meet you where you are and help you find the tools you need specifically to move forward with your own goals. Let's work together!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our sessions together, I will be an active listener. We will discuss your goals for our sessions and determine a plan to achieve them. I will provide support and encouragement and will continue to check in on your personal progress along the way. We will be mindful of what's working and what isn't and adjust our plan as we need to.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

I use both solution-focused and person-centered therapy approaches in my sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I provide encouragement to my clients in a nurturing environment while giving you the tools to move forward with your own goals. I have a special interest in working with young adults who are transitioning to living independently of their parents and/or families for the first time. I love supporting my young adults in developing structure and healthy habits that will help them to thrive in their independence.

Cara is very easy to talk to and is openminded. She is able to relate to situations and the anxieties I have been feeling. We work on recognizing them and having ways to cope with them. She makes you feel heard and that she is truly listening and understanding. I feel there is no judgement in our sessions. Overall my experience with Cara has been very positive and helpful. My life has definitely improved having her there to talk things out and work on solutions together.
