Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Karissa, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to helping individuals feel supported and understood. I specialize in anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and life transitions, and I work from a compassionate, strengths-based approach. My goal is to create a safe space where you can explore what you’re feeling and build tools that support lasting change.

My approach to therapy

I work by creating a safe, open space where you can talk honestly about what you’re feeling. Together, we look at the patterns shaping your life and find new ways to navigate challenges with confidence and clarity. I specialize in helping clients with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and identity concerns, offering guidance that is both supportive and practical.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a chance to share your story and help me understand what you’d like to work on. We’ll explore your current concerns, talk through your hopes for therapy, and discuss what’s been getting in the way of feeling your best. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, understood, and clear about our next steps.
