Introduction

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS Kari is a therapist in Winnetka, IL who works with ages 13 and up. She works with a wide range of issues including, but certainly not limited to her special passions – Queer (LGBTQIA+) community with particular emphasis on supporting transpersons, and trauma and PTSD – as well as anxiety, depression, families of severe mental illness, self-harm, aviation industry, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, coping skills, multicultural therapy, stress management, and life transitions. She is also poly and kink friendly. She is fandom friendly whether it’s LARPing, furry, gaming, etc. If it’s an important part of your life she is here for it. Kari is a “person-centered” therapist, meaning she believes clients have the capacity to find their full potential, and views it as her job to nurture that just as a coach nurtures an athlete. That being said, she approach to therapy is “one size does not fit all.” She will use the combination of tools and techniques that best fit the client and their individual challenges. Kari earned her degree at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a concentration in Latino/a mental health. By no means an expert, Kari nonetheless aims to validate and support clients of all ethnicities, creeds, and religions. She is also a certified trauma professional and trained in the EMDR method of trauma processing.
