Kara Willis
People consider therapy for a variety of reasons & I'm here to help through NWA Therapy's team. My experience working in a hospice setting has helped me learn so much to support and counsel someone as they journey through grief and loss. My work in dialysis has informed me on strategies to help patients manage the emotional stress of chronic illness & medical concerns. Work in a psychiatric hospital exposed me to patients struggling with significant mental health problems. I want to partner with you as we work together through the struggles of life including depression, grief, loss, anxiety, stress, trauma, and life transitions.
I use a supportive client centered approach. I want to offer an inclusive space for the unique concerns of people of color, women, and members of the LGBTQA+ community. I want to be a resource to you & provide a secure space to process your thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Finding the right therapist for you makes talk therapy so validating & rewarding!
I am able to offer virtual/online sessions to adults 18 and older. I also am able to accommodate some evening appointments to meet the needs of your challenging schedule. Our New Client Coordinator at NWA Therapy makes scheduling an appointment easy and convenient. We hope to hear from you and are happy to answer questions!
