Great to meet you!

I'm Dr. Kara Hokes, a licensed clinical psychologist who offers telehealth therapy to adolescents and adults in Washington state. I have many years of training and experience focusing on trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, and emotion dysregulation. In the past, I have worked extensively with first responders and military affiliated individuals.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic style is to show up as my authentic self: warm, collaborative, and empathic! I strive to create a judgement free space where you can also show up authentically as yourself. I believe in the importance of culturally responsive care where every client I work with feels seen, respected, and heard.

What you can expect from me

I believe therapy should be tailored to your individual goals, needs, and lived experiences. I'm looking forward to building on the strengths you already possess and helping you build a life that feels worth showing up for each and every day.
