About Kari

Kari Regehr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama. She brings six years of clinical experience helping people who struggle with intense emotions, mood conditions, and difficult life events. Kari speaks plainly and aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable for someone under stress.

She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting strains, and anger. Kari also addresses self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with people who have personality and behavioral disorders and severe mental health challenges.

Kari uses a mix of approaches to tailor work to each person. She draws on acceptance and commitment therapy to help people live by their values, cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on what matters to the client. Mindfulness and solution-focused strategies are also part of her toolbox.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with short-term steps and skills people can try between meetings. Kari emphasizes collaboration and clear plans rather than long, abstract conversations. She asks questions, listens, and helps people identify small changes that improve daily functioning.

If someone is ready to start, the usual next step is to complete the Start Therapy questionnaire and schedule a session. Kari communicates in English and practices in Alabama as an LPC.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anger, anxiety, and dealing with life changes by focusing on what matters rather than on getting rid of difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and impulse control. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience and priorities, creating space for them to set the pace and topics for change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kari will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what is and isn’t working and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy lives. It can allow for shorter check-ins when time is tight, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to maintain continuity when routines are disrupted. Licensed professionals can combine the approaches above into focused online sessions to practice skills and track progress over time.
