01About Kari
Kari Trempler is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and issues around parenting and family life. She works with people facing addiction, grief, intimacy worries, eating or sleeping problems, ADHD, and career or life-purpose questions.
Kari brings 23 years of experience to her work in Missouri and supports English-speaking clients, including those connecting from other countries. Kari’s style is straightforward and accepting.
Background and approach
She aims to meet people where they are and follow their lead. Sessions focus on practical tools and steady support rather than judgment. The goal is to help people make steps they can sustain in daily life.
Her background centers on approaches that emphasize relationships, present thinking, and processing past hurt. She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns and on EMDR for processing trauma when appropriate.
Kari adapts methods to each person’s needs. Some people benefit from skill-building and problem solving, while others need focused trauma work or mindfulness practices to calm the body and mind. She views the therapeutic relationship as a partnership and adjusts pace and tools to what feels manageable.
Practical matters are handled simply. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the matching and booking steps on the site.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help identify repeated reactions in relationships and practice new ways of connecting and communicating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In video or chat sessions this approach helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors between appointments. EMDR, used for trauma processing, guides clients through specific recall and bilateral stimulation to reduce distress; it can be adapted to remote formats when clinically appropriate.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. Sessions begin by assessing current concerns and trying techniques together, then adjusting based on what helps most. This keeps the work responsive rather than fixed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work when visual cues matter. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to write out thoughts, get ongoing support between sessions, or fit therapy into a busy day. These options help people keep therapy consistent while working around work, caregiving, or travel.
