Hello! I'm Kara Pederson, LICSW. I am a licensed therapist providing online psychotherapy services to adolescents and adults. I specialize in working with clients struggling with ADHD, trauma related disorders, and anxiety/depression. I am currently completing the requirements to obtain my ADHD-CCSP (ADHD Specialist Certification) and hope to use this additional knowledge to provide a unique approach to clients using a combination of therapeutic approaches and daily life management skills. I understand that seeking therapy can be a difficult decision, and I want to make this process as comfortable and supportive as possible for you. I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, where we work together to explore your unique experiences and develop personalized strategies to help you overcome challenges and achieve your goals. In our sessions, we will work together to explore your concerns, identify patterns and obstacles, and develop practical strategies to help you move forward. Various approaches I typically utilize include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and trauma informed practices. I strive to provide additional resources and content to clients for further practice of skills outside of session time. I believe that therapy is a powerful tool for healing and personal growth, and I hope to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your inner world and work towards your goals. If you are seeking a therapist who is compassionate, skilled, and committed to your well-being, I would be honored to work with you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a consultation. I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on your journey.
