“I am so grateful for her kind caring and supportive attitude. Her willingness to listen to your concerns and genuinely be invested in helping you and helping you grow. She really considers everything you tell her and wants to see you succeed. She has a way of motivating and telling you what you need to hear without being harsh or hurtful but full of grace and understanding. I’m so thankful I found a Christian counselor that understands my values and takes the time to understand my struggles.”

Getting to know Karley Root
Do you feel overwhelmed? Like life just feels hard? Anxiety is messy, unpredictable, overpowering, and insidious. It can feel terrible-not just for the person experiencing it, but also for the people who love them. If you feel this way, you are not alone. I am here to help. The goal is not to get rid of your anxiety; the goal is to live your life despite it. It is not safety you are looking for, but courage.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Central Connecticut State University and a Bachelor's degree from Franklin Pierce University. I am also a wife, a mother, and a Christian woman. Compassionate, understanding, and empathetic, I am trained in many treatment interventions and have been working in the field for over 16 years. Don't suffer alone-please book an appointment.
I look forward to hearing from you!
What should a new client know about working with you?
During the first session, we will explore:
What brought you to therapy?
What do you feel is wrong in your life?
What changes you would like to see?
Some questions about your history, including your childhood, education, relationships (family, romantic, friends), your current living situation, and your career may also be discussed.
Depending on your goals, therapy can last a few sessions, several weeks or longer. While you likely want to know how long it's going to take to "feel better," there's no simple answer. It's very individualized and we develop and navigate this roadmap together.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

She has been incredibly understanding and easy to connect to. She has gone at my pace rather than a canned process, which was helpful since I was going through a difficult time during our first appointment. She makes me feel empowered and hopeful for my future.

Karley listening and challenging me in different areas to grow helps me to step back
And think about things in a different light and approaching them in a different and calmer manner.

After my first appointment she made me feel heard and supported. She is a great listener, pays attention to detail and is relatable. Would highly recommend especially to people who have struggled finding a good therapist!
