Cara Pruitt

Cara Pruitt creates a safe, supportive, and accepting space where people can begin the work of counseling with clarity and compassion. She listens with empathy and objectivity, and partners with clients to develop practical plans for getting through difficult times, preparing for new chapters, or continuing along an established path.

Her aim is to empower individuals, families, and couples to move past personal obstacles and strengthen relationships using clinically tested interventions. Cara believes healthier relationships contribute to overall well-being and enjoys working with people across family and couple systems as well as individuals.

When building a treatment plan she uses an eclectic, individualized approach tailored to each person’s needs. She may draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems, attachment theory, solution-focused methods, or dialectical behavioral treatment to meet specific goals.

Cara holds two master’s degrees, one in Leadership and another in Counseling, and she also has nursing training. She is a licensed professional counselor in Texas, holding license TX LPC 74173, and she brings five years of clinical experience to her practice.

She has a particular interest in helping families reconnect through improved communication, deeper understanding, and the return of shared laughter. Cara is also passionate about restoring intimacy and fostering relationships built on respect, trust, and care with the people who matter most.

Cara works with a wide range of concerns, including addictions, relationship and family conflicts, eating disorders, parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger management, self-esteem, career difficulties, depression, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD. She looks forward to supporting clients as they pursue the personal and professional growth they want to achieve.
