Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Clara! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and the owner of Vivant Counseling & Psychotherapy. I believe strongly in the curative power of therapy. In a world that is overstimulating, distracting, and overwhelming, therapy can help you focus, reflect, and work towards your personal goals. It’s a space just for you. Therapy with me isn’t stuffy. You can feel big emotions, be confused or uncertain, and be human in my office. I am open, genuine, and eager to listen. My personal experiences as a working professional, musician, wife, and mother help me empathize with my clients going through similar life transitions. I have worked in a private practice setting since 2016, and founded Vivant Counseling & Psychotherapy in 2022.
