Hi, I’m Kari
I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist who provides support and practical feedback to help patients move their lives forward.
I have a Doctorate of Social Work. I am the previous owner and clinical director of a private mental health group practice that had over 20,000 patient visits before transitioning from a group practice into Kari O’Neill Counseling in 2022. I am an affiliated medical staff member with Swedish Issaquah.

Voted an Issaquah Highlands Connections Newspaper fan favorite.
Ask Kari: How can I talk to my best friend who suddenly backed away from our friendship?
I have been best friends with my friend Lisa for the past five years, but lately she has pulled herself away from me and I am not sure why. I have asked her if something is wrong and she says no, but I don’t believe her. We did start socializing with some other friends in our neighborhood a few months back, and there is one woman that I think talks badly about me behind my back to others including Lisa. But, I can’t believe that my best friend would side with someone else’s viewpoint over me. What can I do to get her to tell me the truth?
Ask Kari: How can I help my child gain school support?
My child is struggling in school and I genuinely feel that his teacher does not like him. My son frequently comes home and tells me that his teacher makes fun of him or tells him to be quiet in class. What can I do to support my son and establish support for him in the school setting?
Ask Kari: How should I handle a disrespectful colleague?
I have a colleague at work that is rude to me. She is passive-aggressive whenever we encounter each other and makes facial gestures that are directed my way. Recently, in a meeting she appeared disinterested when I would talk and purposely looked away from me in a manner that I found disrespectful. It upsets me that she does this to me. Now, I even feel that she is purposely rolling her eyes the moment I open my mouth. How would you handle this?

What I want patients to know:

2. Their feelings are normal
3. They can move their life forward
4. Say the whole thing
5. Living well is a daily practice
