Education & Experience

My approach to care is to remember that while this is my every day, it is new to the people I see and can be scary. I want my patients to understand the process and know they can ask questions along the way.

Putting down roots and contributing to the community where she grew up is important to Kara. She is grateful to be able to serve the general population and appreciates the opportunity OSF HealthCare provides in helping an underserved population.

Kara is always looking out for her patients and wants them to feel comfortable.

“Even though what we talk about may be uncomfortable, I try to create a space where patients feel at ease,” she said. “I want them to know I am on their side and will do all I can to help them.”

After giving the fashion industry a try, Kara switched gears and decided to become a psychologist.

“When I switched, I went from a job I thought I could like well enough to a job I love and feel called to do,” she said.

Kara takes to heart something a grad school professor told her once.

“She said that everyone you meet is doing the best they can, and I think she is right. Psychology helps me understand myself and others better,” she said.

Kara grew up in Peoria and comes from a large family. She loves reading, watching movies, cooking, spending time outside and being around those she loves.
