Kara Busse

Growth can be challenging, and we should not have to do it alone. It is a great honor for me to accompany you toward more ease and joy. I bring compassion, mindful presence, curiosity, and heartfelt acceptance to my work with adults, children, and families. The tension you feel in your body and mind can be valuable sources of information that point toward your underlying needs. With busy lives, we rarely have the opportunity to attend to these sources. My intention is to listen deeply so that we can take care of your underlying needs. I am trained in Child-Parent Psychotherapy, Mindfulness-based CBT, EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, trauma-informed practices, cultural competency, Healing Childhood Trauma (Yoga Calm), Supporting Children Exposed to Domestic Violence, ASIST-Suicide Prevention, Street Yoga, along with others. I have over 15 years of experience supporting Latino, Spanish-speaking families, many of whom have experienced immigration or have family members who have.
