About Kari
Kari Regehr is an AL LPC with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on common concerns adults bring when home life feels strained - stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship and parenting worries.
She uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what is happening. Sessions concentrate on what feels most urgent at home and practical steps to try between meetings. The tone is straightforward and calm rather than clinical jargon.
In sessions she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small behavior changes. She also uses client-centered methods and mindfulness practices for learning to sit with difficult feelings without reacting. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term, manageable goals.
Kari has experience supporting adults who have struggled with severe mood and personality issues, psychosis, phobias, and substance use in past roles. That background informs how she structures safety, pacing, and concrete coping tools for people who feel overwhelmed at home.
People who are juggling caregiving, parenting, or difficult family history often look for brief, practical strategies. Kari works to identify what can be changed now and what needs longer attention.

How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that connect to personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and parenting choices when emotions feel overwhelming.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches practical skills for stress, depression, and anger management.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so the adult in the room can clarify what matters most. Mindfulness methods complement these approaches by teaching short attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try methods together. That collaborative process helps decide which approach or combination fits best for someone's situation and current needs.
