Karrington Pease

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Media, PA


Hi - I am so glad you are here. I am Karr, a Licensed Professional Counselor and wounded healer with a burning passion to support the healing journey of others. I specialize working with the queer community and those who feel stuck in their survival mode after surviving traumatic experiences. I have training and experiencing navigating trauma, gender affirming care, and LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy.

I am an avid reader and obsessed with all things fantasy. At my core, I am a lifetime learner and dedicated challenger. I enjoy exploring the way systems operate, how they impact us today, and ways we can resist and challenge as a collective. When I am not working with clients, you can find me with my head in my kindle, spending far too many hours playing video games, or in some other hobby I am currently hyper-fixated on only to forget about a month later!

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Collegeville, PA


“I don't even know what I'd say.”

If that is what is stopping you, you are exactly who I work with. Maybe you are anxious and cannot name why. Maybe your feelings come faster than you can handle. Maybe you have tried therapy and left feeling like you failed at it.


You didn't. It just wasn't built for you.


So we start differently. Sometimes we talk. Sometimes we move or create. Then we build skills that hold up when things get hard.

The goal is not to make you easier. It is to help you feel more like yourself.
