Kari Kendzerski

Hi! I’m Kari, a queer therapist specializing in providing support to LGBTQIA+ and other marginalized adults (18+) via individual therapy. I know this world can feel unwelcoming to those of us whose identities and experiences aren’t centered in the mainstream. Oppressive forces, combined with stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression, can make it difficult to live the life you want. You deserve joy, fulfillment, and the freedom to be your authentic self! I’m here to support your journey of self-discovery and healing—so you can thrive.

My approach to therapy is designed to meet you where you are, with care and understanding. I provide a confidential space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences without judgement. For some, this means unpacking feelings of self-doubt, guilt, or overwhelm. For others, it involves addressing challenges like setting boundaries in relationships, coping with major life changes, or reflecting on unhealthy coping mechanisms. I work from an anti-oppressive, intersectional, and trauma-informed framework.

My goal is to help you uncover your strengths, find relief from your symptoms, and build resilience, self-acceptance, and a sense of belonging. Together, we’ll set meaningful goals and work toward them using a personalized blend of therapeutic approaches. You are the expert in your own life, and I am here to guide and support you as we go on this journey together.
