Greetings! My name is Kara Stewart, I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in the state of Georgia and Virginia. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and have a passion for assisting others with finding their sense of wholeness and fulfillment. I obtained a M.S. in Counseling and Psychology with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I also have a M.S. in Mental Health and Wellness with an emphasis in Christian Ministry. I specialize in trauma, grief, life transitions, and other mood disorders.
I have worked in primary care and medical environments for over 6 years as a therapist/clinical social worker.
My background is primarily working with patients faced with mood disorders such as anxiety, and depression. My expertise has expanded to treat PTSD and dissociative disorders as well as borderline personality disorder.
I'm a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, based in South Carolina. I received my Masters in Nursing from Duquesne University (Forensic Nursing), Post-Masters in Nursing from University of Virginia (PMHNP). I served in both U.S. Navy and U.S. Public Health Service, retired in 2019. I have been practicing for 12 yrs. I have experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings.
I believe that therapy can have a great impact on one's life. If one is motivated, one can resolve problems, feel better, and address past hardships. I have over thirty years of experience helping clients achieve their goals in a supportive and safe environment. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I received my undergraduate degree from Stanford University and my Masters of Social Work from Columbia University. I have resided in both the United States and Latin America. I look forward to working with each and every client, in order that they may reach their happiest self possible.
