Karisa Le (she/her) is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes that each person has unique strengths and abilities that can serve as a foundation for healing and growth. She strives to create a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves, processing their experiences, and working toward meaningful change.

 

Karisa earned her Masters of Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh and has extensive experience in the mental health field. She has a particular passion for supporting individuals and families facing medical challenges, aging, grief, and loss. Karisa believes grief is not linear and that there is no timeline for healing. She provides a compassionate space for clients to process loss while finding ways to move forward at their own pace. She is Level II certified through Columbia University’s Center for Prolonged Grief for Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy.

 

Her experience also includes supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum life, and motherhood, including postpartum depression and anxiety and the challenges of adjusting to a new or changing identity. In addition, she utilizes Cognitive Processing Therapy to address symptoms of PTSD. 

 

Karisa values self-determination and believes therapy should be collaborative and tailored to each client’s individual needs, strengths, and goals. You don’t have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. Karisa looks forward to meeting you where you are, exactly as you are, and walking alongside you through whatever season of life you may be experiencing.
