Gayle Adams-Carpino, RSW, MSW, PhD
“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
—Viktor Frankl
With expertise in the connection between trauma and health, I offer evidence-informed approaches to foster healing and resilience. Drawing on academic and professional experience, my practice supports individuals navigating life’s challenges by addressing the impact of trauma on well-being. Together, we build the tools needed to overcome adversity, promote growth, and embrace a fuller, more vibrant life. Empowerment and wellness are at the heart of my compassionate, client-centered approach.

Kara Braun, Registered Psychotherapist and Mindfulness Coach
Kara’s practice is dedicated to supporting individuals for whom understanding themselves with greater wisdom and ease has become essential. Her clients are deeply curious about the ways in which their hearts, minds, and bodies can long for things to be different while at the same time knowing great beauty in even the most challenging of circumstances, including grief and bereavement, physical and emotional pain, addiction, anxiety and depression.
