LGBT therapists in Yakima, WA

Are you feeling stuck, anxious, or worn down by the demands of life or work? Many of my clients seek therapy during times of transition, burnout, self-doubt, or when they’ve lost connection with their sense of balance and purpose. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Employee Assistance Professional, I’m here to provide a supportive space to explore challenges with honesty, resilience, and compassion. I help clients navigate stress, life transitions, and personal struggles while honoring their identities and cultural backgrounds to invite authenticity, balance, and self-discovery.

My commitment to you as your therapist is to help promote a feeling of autonomy, relatedness and competence to where you can live life more freely with meaning and purpose. I have a career experience in a variety of professional therapy work-related duties and environments, tele-health, inpatient / outpatient atmospheres, and a variation of other different professional roles of counseling positions over the past 30 years.

I'm Dr. Kara Hokes, a licensed clinical psychologist who offers telehealth therapy to adolescents and adults in Washington state. I have many years of training and experience focusing on trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, and emotion dysregulation. In the past, I have worked extensively with first responders and military affiliated individuals.

I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.

I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.
