Dr. Kara Newman

Psychologist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I'm Kara, a doctoral-level psychologist with over 10 years of experience in licensed practice working with PTSD, grief, anxiety, and addiction. New clients often reach out after they have gone through a major loss or traumatic event, or because they need better ways to manage the ongoing stress that comes with a high-responsibility role.

I'm committed to supporting first responders, military Veterans, and community public servants. Earlier in my career, I worked for the Department of Veterans Affairs at a large VA medical center providing clinical care. More recently, I've spent over five years providing Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services and substance use treatment.

I completed my master's and PhD in Clinical Psychology at Drexel University and my bachelor’s degree in Neuroscience at Trinity College as an NCAA athlete. Prior to becoming a full-time therapist, I worked in clinical research roles at the University of Pennsylvania.

Therapist

help patients find hope in adversity. I explore a patient's need for external validation and identify old, negative motivators used to inspire achievement-based goals. I teach self-care and self-regulating practices while modeling healthy attunement. Together, we explore conflict-avoidant behaviors and healthy dependency. Being a highly sensitive person is not a weakness but an empathic strength. I explore the guilt, shame, and fear that cause "analysis paralysis." I analyze unhealthy habits and teach clients to build trust and reconnect with a traumatic body that no longer trusts. You are the expert and I am your guide.

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I help individuals who keep finding themselves in the same painful relational patterns. Whether you're stuck in a situationship that won't solidify, caught in a pursue-withdraw cycle with your partner, or drawn to emotionally unavailable people, there is an attachment pattern driving it. My work is about understanding that pattern and building something more secure.

Whether you're unpacking generational trauma, processing relational distress, or learning how to set boundaries that don't cost you the relationship, we go beyond symptom management and get to the root. This is therapy that meets you where you are and honors every layer of who you are.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Pennsylvania

Finding the right therapist in Pennsylvania starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions — and many providers specialize in specific areas like trauma, ADHD, or family dynamics. Whether you prefer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), or another approach, knowing your priorities can help you narrow your options.

Pennsylvania is home to providers in major metro areas like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, as well as in smaller cities like Allentown, Harrisburg, Erie, and Lancaster. If in-person options are limited in your area, virtual therapy with a Pennsylvania-licensed provider is widely available, and coverage may be available through many insurance plans depending on your benefits. Choosing between in-person and virtual sessions comes down to personal preference — both connect you with the same licensed professionals.

Therapy in Pennsylvania can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. Enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Pennsylvania and see your estimated costs.
