Great to meet you!

Greetings! My name is Kara Stewart, I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in the state of Georgia and Virginia. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and have a passion for assisting others with finding their sense of wholeness and fulfillment. I obtained a M.S. in Counseling and Psychology with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I also have a M.S. in Mental Health and Wellness with an emphasis in Christian Ministry. I specialize in trauma, grief, life transitions, and other mood disorders.

My approach to therapy

I use an array of clinical modalities (i.e., cognitive behavioral, dynamic, solution-focused, mindfulness, and more) to assist individuals with addressing their issues and finding their path to managing life stressors. . I prefer to take an integrated approach as most life stressors are impacted by a combination of physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.

What you can expect from me

During the initial session, we will get to know each other, discuss the nature of therapy, expectations of the process, and reasons for seeking services. We will also review the limitations of confidentiality and identify your personal goal.
