Libra | Scorpio | Scorpio
Kari brings a sense of curiosity, warmth, and playfulness to the therapy space—providing her clients with a comfortable, trusting relationship. She holds space for her clients to take an honest look at themselves, their relationships, and the parts of their life they want to transform. In working with Kari, you can expect to gain awareness of your relational patterns to help you make a conscious choice about how you want to show up in the world as a partner, parent, professional, friend and person in general. She’ll work with you to gain clarity on what it is you want, while holding you accountable and continuously nudging you toward creating and living a life that feels meaningful. She firmly believes that each of us holds the answers to our happiness, peace, and well-being within us. Her job is to help uncover and shine a light on your truth.
Spontaneity and creativity are core values for Kari. Outside of the therapy and birthing spaces, you can find her singing and dancing to anything Taylor Swift with her girls, finding a new corner of her home to decorate, and exploring all that Mother Earth has to offer. She feels most at home with herself when she wakes with the sun, sings in the car, and travels somewhere new.
Kari is a seasoned relationship therapist and birth doula specializing in women’s empowerment. Integral to Kari’s approach is her belief that women are badass and way stronger than society gives them credit for. Kari’s mission is to help women tap into their power and intuition to help them create a life that lights them up. As a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Kari works from a systemic perspective, always considering the impact that her client’s relationships have on mental wellbeing.
Kari takes a holistic approach to mental wellness in that she believes the path to wellness is most powerfully discovered when incorporating mind + body + spirit. We are integrated beings. Our bodies and brains are not separate entities—each affects the other. This is where walk-and-talk sessions come in. Whether it’s walking the neighborhood, hitting the trail, taking to the walking pad, or heading to the community center, Kari helps facilitate walk-and-talk sessions that lead to life-changing transformation.
