Cara is a licensed clinical social worker who finds joy in helping children, teens and families navigate the world. Cara is skilled at helping her clients build confidence, process grief, manage depression, manage anxiety, strengthen relationships and more. Cara feels that children and adolescents are strong and resilient and believes that they need a safe space to explore their thoughts and feelings. Connecting with young hearts is something that comes natural to Cara, and she enjoys building strong relationships with her clients. Cara bears witness to those that have experienced trauma, and provides support and empathy for those emotional injuries. Cara feels that with a little work, everyone can find peace and happiness in their lives.

Cara uses a combination of evidence-based practices and empathy to help her clients reach their goals. Some modalities that she uses include: cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma- focused cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. Cara creates a safe space for clients of all backgrounds.

Cara is very excited to be part of the ritual family and begin connecting with this community.

When Cara is not wearing her therapist hat you can find her enjoying time with her husband, her twins, and golden retriever, enjoying the beauty that the coast of Maine has to offer.
