Zachary Karr

Zachary Karr is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. He meets people where they are and aims to make sessions feel relaxed and straightforward. Zach uses plain language and a calm style so conversations stay practical and helpful.

He has six years of post-graduate experience as an LCSW and more than a decade working in mental health across three states. That background means he has worked in different settings and with many kinds of concerns. He draws on a range of approaches to match what each person needs.

In session he keeps things down-to-earth. He listens first, then works with clients to set small, manageable goals. He often blends client-centered listening with skills-based strategies and mindfulness practices to reduce stress and build steady habits.

People come to him for many issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, addiction, and self-esteem struggles. He also supports those dealing with parenting stress, grief, career decisions, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues. His additional focus areas include body image, codependency, communication problems, and navigating separation or divorce.

Outside of therapy he likes hiking, camping, and picking up new hobbies. In winter he unwinds with books, TV shows, or video games. That easygoing outlook shows up in his work, where the aim is steady progress rather than rushing change.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space. It helps people who need to talk through feelings and clarify what matters to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. It uses practical exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These techniques can help with overwhelm, grief, and managing strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to choose which methods to try based on their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Adjustments are made as needed so the plan stays relevant.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy life because it can reduce travel and allow more flexible scheduling. Online sessions can support consistent progress through focused skill practice, mindful exercises, and regular check-ins that fit into everyday routines.
