Hi, I’m Cara, a master’s student in Social Work at LSU, based in New York for the past eight years. My path to social work has been shaped by pivots—I began as a plus-sized model, creating spaces where people could feel seen, and later became a producer, connecting people and ideas. These experiences deepened my belief in representation, connection, and the importance of being heard.

In the therapy room, I bring that same ethos. I draw from Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Motivational Interviewing to support clients through life transitions, identity shifts, and those tricky in-between seasons. My approach is collaborative, down-to-earth, and strengths-based. I believe therapy should feel like a safe conversation, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you grow into the best version of yourself.
