About
Originally from California, Cara always knew that she wanted to help people. Her mom had a big heart and a lot of love to give. Cara saw how much that helped people and knew she wanted to find a way to do the same thing. In college, psychology quickly captured her attention. She ended up in an interdisciplinary major of Human Development, taking courses in psychology, sociology, communications, education, and anthropology. This field of study began to show Cara the rich interconnected complexity of life. Yet it wasn’t until Cara began exploring the field of marriage and family therapy that she began to fully comprehend just how the attachments we form as children and experiences we have throughout our lives can shape us.
“When I learned about attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), it was like a light bulb had gone off. ”
— CARA QUINN
Attachment theory suggests that we are born hardwired to need connection. The way those connections form in infancy effect behavioral and emotional expression throughout a person’s life… especially in our intimate relationships. How profound! By helping a couple repair their disconnections, they may also be healing their sense of connection and belonging going back to the crib.
A Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Cara has been in practice since 2005. Cara continues to learn and grow as a therapist alongside her clients through training, supervision, and reading. She is passionate about and committed to her work with her clients.
Cara is the mother of two children and one dog; the latter comes to work with her. Fen (short for “Fenway”) is a little seven-pound English Toy Spaniel who provides comfort and support in the therapy room.
