About Kari
Kari Trempler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri. She has 23 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. Kari concentrates on practical steps people can use right away, and she emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental tone in sessions.
She works with a wide range of concerns including relationship struggles, parenting challenges, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, and issues related to adoption and foster care.
How Kari works
Kari also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, career uncertainty, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Her background includes long experience in counseling-related roles across community and care settings. Kari uses an approach that centers the person seeking help.
She aims to meet people where they are and walk alongside them toward goals they set. Sessions focus on tools and strategies the person can use between meetings as well as time to talk through the things that feel overwhelming. Cognitive behavioral techniques are a common part of her work, but she adapts methods to each person's needs and preferences.
She integrates attachment ideas, trauma-focused practices, mindfulness, and EMDR when these fit the situation. The result is practical, goal-oriented work mixed with attention to relationships and past experiences. People can expect clear suggestions, skill-building, and steady support as they try new ways of coping.
Kari describes the therapeutic relationship as collaborative and accepting, with the person in charge of direction and pace.

How Kari’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people understand their patterns with others and build safer, more trusting connections. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them. EMDR targets disturbing memories from trauma and uses structured processing to reduce their hold on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kari will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what feels most comfortable. Together they choose methods and move at a pace that fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick coping support, or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try different formats until the best fit is found.
