My name is Kara and I specialize in working with clients on issues related to: grief and loss, anxiety, relationship and marital conflict, addiction, childhood trauma, body image and self-esteem, and codependency. I offer a multidisciplinary range of skills including emotion-focused, experiential, interpersonal, and systemic approaches to assist clients in meeting the unique challenges they bring to each session. I am committed to providing a safe space without judgment and to meeting you wherever you’re at in your journey. I am accepting and loving, and understand the healing power of laughter and humour. I approach sessions with an openness and curiosity; accountability and self-awareness, and a willingness to engage in vulnerable connection. I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor with a diploma in transpersonal psychology from Clearmind International Institute. I am also studying Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy from the AEDP institute. I offer individual and couples counselling on-line or in person from my office in Victoria BC, Canada.
