Let’s take a beat.

For high achievers and perfectionists, it can feel much more comfortable to intellectualize and talk about your problems from a distance.

Allowing yourself to feel your deeper emotions can be painful, scary, and uncomfortable.

Therapy is a safe space for you to experience those feelings and seek greater understanding of yourself, as opposed to analyzing and talking about how you feel from a distance.

Does this sound familiar? Let’s dig in.

Hi, I’m Cara.

Cara Kraft, couples therapist, smiles with her arms crossed

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Maine. I’m passionate about helping people uncover and live in alignment with the innate goodness and wisdom we all possess.

I specialize in relational issues, both with individuals and couples, and how this contributes to anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. I work with individuals, couples, and families with adult children grappling with the stress and pressures that come with life transitions related to career, relationships, parenthood, and beyond.
