Getting to know Kara Rapp

Kara Rapp helps adults in Massachusetts make sense of difficult emotions, build practical coping skills, and move toward a steadier, more fulfilling life. At LifeStance Health, she provides individual therapy for young adults, adults, and older adults who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions. Her style is warm, grounded, and collaborative, creating a space where patients feel heard while also receiving thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to their goals. She has a strong clinical interest in women's issues and perinatal mental health, including postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety. Kara understands that pregnancy, new parenthood, identity shifts, and changing family roles can bring intense emotional strain, even during meaningful seasons of life. She helps patients process these experiences with compassion and clarity while strengthening resilience, self-trust, and emotional well-being. Kara draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies to help patients better understand patterns in their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. She may also incorporate faith-based treatment when it aligns with a patient's values and preferences. Her approach is focused on meaningful progress, helping patients develop skills they can use in everyday life while feeling supported through each stage of the therapeutic process. She began practicing in 2025 and studied at Liberty University and Regis College. Outside of work, Kara enjoys travel, cooking, reading, and supporting foster care efforts. Through LifeStance Health, she serves patients throughout Massachusetts who are looking for compassionate therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, and perinatal mental health concerns. Patients in Massachusetts can book online to connect with Kara Rapp for care.
