Kara Boyd

Kara Boyd, LCSW-C, is a compassionate and dedicated Clinical Social Worker specializing in individual therapy for adults. With a Master's in Social Work from the University of Maryland Baltimore, Kara has honed her expertise in addressing complex issues such as anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, mood disorders, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, and addiction-related disorders. She integrates various evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness approaches, to provide personalized treatment that resonates with her clients' unique experiences. Kara values the importance of cultivating a strong therapeutic relationship, guiding her clients not only to achieve their goals but also to delve deeply into the emotions, attitudes, and beliefs that may have previously obstructed their journey of personal growth. Her holistic and integrative methods have proven beneficial for those facing co-occurring substance abuse and mental health challenges. Currently, Kara provides therapy sessions through telehealth for individuals aged 22 and older, and while her caseload is presently full, she looks forward to welcoming new clients when space becomes available.
