About Kari

Kari Regehr is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama. She has six years of clinical experience and focuses on helping adults who are facing strong emotional challenges. Kari aims to make that first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful.

Kari is direct and practical in sessions. She helps people identify what feels most urgent and breaks problems into small, doable steps. Conversations focus on daily life, coping skills, and clearer communication rather than long lectures or technical jargon.

She brings several therapeutic approaches to the work, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered listening. Those methods are used to reduce overwhelming thoughts, shift unhelpful behaviors, and build values-based goals.

Kari often supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar challenges, and addiction-related concerns. She also helps with relationship strain, grief, parenting stress, self-esteem, anger, and coping with life changes. Additional focus areas include attachment and family of origin issues and problems with communication.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Kari encourages small experiments between meetings so people can try new ways of coping and see what helps. She works in English and practices in Alabama, and she asks that readers confirm current session options before booking.

Step 3

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Kari uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and still choose actions that match their values. That can help with anxiety, depression, and situations that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to find and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it often involves practical exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Kari works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and everyday life. Clients and the therapist check what is working and make adjustments as needed so the plan fits the client’s needs and preferences.

If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking since available formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits someone’s schedule. Talk with Kari during the intake process about what will work best for meeting goals and fitting sessions into daily routines.
