Schedule With Kari

Kari is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of experience, and the founder of Wise Womxn Wellness - a women-centered practice rooted in the belief that healing happens in mind, body, and spirit. She brings curiosity, warmth, and a grounded playfulness to the therapy space, creating a relationship where clients feel safe enough to take an honest look at themselves and the life they want to build.


Kari specializes in three areas. Her Walk + Talk Therapy sessions move healing out of the traditional office setting and into the world - drawing on the science-backed benefits of movement to deepen emotional processing, reduce anxiety, and help clients leave sessions with clarity and momentum. Movement can also be a game-changer for ADHD brains, making Walk + Talk a natural fit for women who find that their thoughts flow more freely when their body is in motion. In her couples work, Kari is a deep believer in the transformational power of relationships - and in their capacity to heal. She takes a systemic approach, exploring each partner's family of origin, attachment experiences, and the relational patterns that were shaped long before this relationship began. Understanding where each person came from is key to understanding how they show up for each other today - and to building something more intentional going forward. She also has a special interest in working with women with ADHD - supporting clients in understanding how ADHD shapes their relationships, self-worth, and daily experience, and helping them work with their brain rather than against it.


Kari's approach is holistic and collaborative. She firmly believes that each client already holds the answers within them - her role is to help uncover and shine a light on that truth. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, a relationship crossroads, or finally ready to understand how your brain works, Kari will meet you exactly where you are. Reach out today, she'd love to connect.
