Getting to know Kara Peeples

As a clinical social worker, I have faith in your personal strengths and deep knowing. I feel honored in my role as witness to your story. I have worked in community and immigrant mental health for 6 years and am deeply committed to supporting our diverse systems of healing. I utilize a eclectic approach, drawing from humanistic and relational theories and using tools from Motivational Interviewing, CBT, EMDR and DBT.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I try to help my clients develop insight around their challenges and how to support themselves long term. I utilize humanistic values in every interaction while pulling from relational, behavioral and wholistic therapies. I hope to share power with you during our sessions and create a space of collaboration and creativity. After session I hope you feel validated and heard. Some sessions may be more challenging (that means we hit on an opportunity for growth!), however my goal is to provide insightful feedback that is useful in your ever day life.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I prefer to have a quick 15 minute consultation call before we book a visit so that we can both feel like this is a good "fit". After that we will start getting into the work! Visits with me are 50 minutes at a time via telehealth. Unfortunately, I am not able to accommodate same day appointments. I will follow up with you for more information about how to move forward with our session. I use Headway for all things administrative (billing, scheduling, and insurance verification).
