Kari is absolutely fantastic. I came to Better Help for therapy after experiencing multiple subsequent break ups. Kari is already knowledgeable and experienced with the Polyamorous community, so starting therapy with her meant we could jump right in to helping me instead of having to explain my lifestyle over and over. Kari is a great listener, note taker, and advice giver. She asks me the difficulty questions I can't ask myself, and gives me tools and references to help me learn about and help myself. She made me feel welcome immediately. She encourages me, and helps me see the positives when all I'm seeing are negatives. She's changed my life, and I cannot recommend Kari enough.

As a licensed therapist in Nebraska, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating a compassionate, affirming space for clients navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, and personal growth.
I specialize in working with diverse populations, offering expertise in addressing self-esteem, life transitions, communication challenges, and interpersonal relationships. My approach is deeply respectful of individual experiences, particularly for LGBTQ+ communities, those exploring sexuality, and individuals processing complex emotional landscapes.
I'm committed to helping clients develop resilience, self-understanding, and healthy coping strategies. Whether you're working through relationship dynamics, processing past experiences, or seeking personal empowerment, I provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your authentic self and build meaningful change.
My therapeutic style integrates evidence-based practices with a holistic, person-centered approach, honoring each client's unique journey and inherent strengths.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Finding a therapist you connect with is so important and I’m so glad I got matched with Kari. I was so comfortable in our first session and look forward to continue working with her
After my first session with Kari, I could already tell she was great at what she does. She made me feel so seen, heard, and loved! Very open minded and passionate about her clients. I am looking forward to my next sessions with Kari!
