Please welcome Karyl!

Karyl DeWitt is a counseling intern pursuing dual licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). She specializes in working with couples and individuals navigating relationship distress, betrayal, communication breakdowns, and life transitions. Her clinical focus is grounded in helping people restore emotional safety, rebuild trust, and create healthier, more connected relationships.

Karyl integrates evidence-based approaches, including the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This integrative framework allows her to support clients in understanding both the emotional patterns that drive their relationships and the practical skills needed to create lasting change. She is especially passionate about helping couples move beyond conflict cycles and toward deeper emotional connection, secure attachment, and meaningful communication.

Karyl brings warmth, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard to every session. Clients often experience her as compassionate and grounded, creating a safe space for vulnerability while also offering structure, clarity, and direction. Her use of CBT helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, while EFT and Gottman-based interventions help couples understand the emotional and relational dynamics shaping their interactions.

In addition to her clinical training, Karyl holds a master’s degree in management, bringing nearly 30 years of experience in healthcare leadership and community-based systems. This background gives her a unique appreciation for how stress, trauma, and life demands affect individuals and families. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process, empowering clients to identify their strengths, clarify their goals, and move toward the relationships and lives they want to build.
