Work HistoryHi, I’m Kara! I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Arizona with experience in a variety of therapeutic settings including community mental health, inpatient and outpatient behavioral health, and private practice. I founded Peaks & Valleys Behavioral Health aiming to create a safe, welcoming, and collaborative space for adults navigating challenges associated with ADHD, anxiety and trauma-related issues, and pregnancy and postpartum anxiety and depression.
