Kara Anglin , LCSW

Kara Anglin is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people facing everyday struggles. She uses a calm, collaborative style to help clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. Kara speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person.

She draws on client-centered therapy to follow the client’s lead and build on their strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when someone wants to change thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are offered to help with overwhelming emotions and better emotional regulation.

Kara has six years of experience working with a range of concerns including parenting stress, workplace strain, self-esteem issues, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with blended family challenges, communication problems, family of origin issues, and multicultural or immigration-related concerns. Women's issues are a noted area of focus.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Early visits are used to clarify what a person hopes to change and to agree on small, concrete steps. Kara emphasizes doable strategies such as brief behavioral experiments, skills practice, and mindful coping techniques.

People can expect straightforward language and steady support while they try new ways of coping. The approach centers on the client's goals, practical tools, and steady pacing that respects each person's timing.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and build confidence to make changes at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It helps people learn simple tools to reduce anxiety and depression by testing and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It is useful when someone feels overwhelmed by strong feelings or wants better ways to handle conflict and stress.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust as progress is made. This collaborative process helps shape clear steps and short-term goals that feel useful.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone work can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and shorter check-ins work well by live chat or text. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family, or busy days while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional.
