Dr. Kara Richardson-Cline

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a licensed psychologist with over 10 years of experience, licensed in North Dakota and Minnesota. I received both my masters degree and PhD from the University of North Dakota. I also completed additional training in Rural Psychology. I have worked in various medical settings and have supervised other mental heath providers.

Clinically, I work with people across the lifespan though various concerns such as mood disorders, anxiety management, lifestyle change, and adapting to medical concerns. I want my treatment interventions to match the needs of my clients, focusing on what you want to change. I use a client centered integrated approach of interpersonal, cogntive-behavioral, and attachment focus interventions.

Personally, I enjoy spending time with my two dogs (who you may get to meet during video sessions), spending time outside in nature, and enjoying quality time with my family.

I am looking forward to working with you as you seek growth and change in your life. I have seen many make great strides in their goals and know it is possible. I believe online therapy is a great tool to use in accomplishing them.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.

One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that best fits their life, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to keep therapy consistent amid busy schedules and changing circumstances.

All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients can switch providers if they feel a different match would be better. For many people, online sessions offer a practical way to pursue meaningful progress toward their goals.
