Karlie Harper

Hello! My name is Karlie and I have been in the human services field for about 10 years. I graduated with a MSW from Arizona State University in 2019. My husband has served in the US Army for 20+ years. We have 4 children ages mid-twenties to elementary school. I also work in the community mental-health field. I work with toddlers doing PCIT all the way to seniors living in long-term care homes. I am certified in TF-CBT, trauma focused therapy, and PCIT for families with young children.

My approach to therapy is the clients know themselves the best. They usually have the answers they need and I am just here to help them realize that and to support them on their healing and wellness journey. I also heavily rely on the person-in-environment perspective. This helps me to understand that individuals do not exist in a vacuum and that people are a result of their environments and experiences. I chose to meet people where they are that day.

Empowerment, support, understanding, problem-solving, empathy, healthy push-back.
