About Kari
Kari Snelson is a licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience helping people navigate relationship struggles, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression.

Kari has supported people with a wide range of concerns beyond mood and relationships. That includes stress around career, addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, and sleep and rest challenges. She also attends to more specific issues such as postpartum depression, dissociation, obsessions and compulsions, and coping after infidelity.
Her background includes nearly two decades of practice in Colorado as a licensed clinician. That experience informs a practical style that balances listening with tools for change. Clients can expect clear explanations and collaborative planning during sessions.
People who choose Kari often want straightforward guidance and concrete next steps. She helps clients prioritize what feels most important and builds small routines that support better days. If you want a therapist who listens and helps turn talk into action, Kari may be a good fit.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills and clear steps people can try between appointments. For example, behavioral approaches break down goals into small actions to improve daily routines and sleep patterns. These methods help with mood, motivation, and sleep by changing habits one step at a time.Coping-focused strategies teach tools to manage strong emotions and responses after trauma. This includes learning skills to ground oneself, reduce distress, and gradually address painful memories or triggers. These techniques can be helpful for grief, trauma, and anger-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques, tracking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.
