As a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, I consider myself a fellow traveler - a human helping other humans navigate their own journeys. My own raw and personal experiences deepened my interest with how our brains and bodies shape our lives and growth. This fueled my drive to expand my knowledge, becoming a therapist dedicated to supporting and guiding others as they uncover their pasts, remove protective barriers, and embrace the unknown path toward greater meaning, purpose, passion, and wisdom.

Hello! I'm Kara (she/her) and I've been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Sex Therapist. I have a soft spot in my heart for working with the worried well, hopelessly lost, and just plain stuck people of the world. I even have a significant amount of advanced training to help people who are struggling with sex and intimacy! I want to help my clients improve any area of their life that feels stagnant or stale or broken.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State with over 20 years of experience working with youth, individuals, and families. I've worked with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, career issues, depression, parenting issues, emotional abuse, and physical trauma. I've also worked with people who have experienced feelings of trauma related inequity and oppression in their everyday and work lives.

Navigating the many challenges in life can be really hard, but you shouldn't have to do it alone. Let me help you face and address the things that might be holding you back and ultimately preventing you from achieving your goals. Whether it's depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, stress, anger, grief and loss, difficulty adjusting, or just feeling stuck - let's work together to get things back on track so you can create a life you want to be living.

I have been licensed since 2012 and worked in both outpatient and inpatient facilities. I treat adults and older adolescents in my private practice as well as perform forensic work for the court system.

If you’re facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, mood swings, or relationship difficulties, know that support is available—and healing is possible. My goal is to help you develop practical tools and meaningful insights so you can approach life’s challenges with greater resilience and clarity.

With over 14 years of experience as a mental health professional, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of needs. I primarily draw from a Trauma-Informed perspective (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), working collaboratively with you to explore your experiences, emotions, and triggers—and to build on your strengths for lasting change.

In addition to individual therapy, I am certified to provide DWI assessments and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These qualifications also enable me to support those affected by a loved one’s struggles with addiction.

My story starts with losing a UPS delivery job during the 2005 Christmas season because I ran over two cones in reverse. I was lost and cried a lot until I realized I needed to head in a new direction - this time, moving forward. What I thought was the end was, in fact, just the beginning. I now have 15 years of experience as a psychotherapist, and I launched Cuda Counseling (C2) in 2017. At C2, I understand that sometimes life can be served on the rocks, causing anxiety, depression, irritability, stress, and even a case of the f*ck-its. I believe that when life knocks you down, it’s the bounce back that counts. I offer a cognitive behavioral approach for courageous individuals, as it takes courage to start counseling.
