About Me

Hi I am so glad you have landed here on your search for a therapist, and I welcome you! My name is Karissa, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and certified EMDR therapist serving clients in the state of Florida through my virtual private practice. I named my practice Rooted Wellness Center because I believe that good therapy gets to the root! EMDR therapy is the best method I have found to get to the root of what's ailing you to bring the fastest, most transformative change. Whether you are navigating the aftermath of trauma, relationship pain, or ongoing patterns you would like to shift, I work collaboratively with you to help you move forward with clarity, a renewed sense of agency, and optimism for your future! My approach blends evidence-based practice with warmth, presence, and a deep respect for your pace. My style of therapy is pretty laid back as I aim to create a space that feels safe and welcoming in order for us to go deep when ready. I blend a gentle approach with direct feedback at times with the intention to help you grow. If you are ready for transformational "get to the root" work, I would be honored to guide you. Please feel free to send me an email with any questions, or check out my website to get more of a feel for me to see if we may be a good fit: www.rootedwellnessctr.com
