Owen Karcher
Art Therapist & Mental Health Counselor | LPC, MA of Art Therapy & Transpersonal Counseling Psychology
Center for Community Healing
I am a transgender therapist and the vast majority of my clients are transgender. I speak Spanish and offer therapy in Spanish and have written letters in support of halting deportation proceedings or for clients seeking UVISAS after experiencing various types of violence. Karcher uses an informed consent model, but also writes letters that meet the WPATH standards to assist trans clients in accessing healthcare. He also uses a social justice model that incorporates the exploration and understanding of oppression and marginalization.
