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: Should I let my daughter’s boyfriend sleep at our home?
My daughter has returned home for the summer for college and she would like to have her boyfriend sleep at our home. My daughter feels that this is normal and acceptable because she is an adult and they have sleepovers at college. I am torn. I recognize that she is adult, but I do not feel that her ways of life need to be brought into our family home where she is still a dependent. What do you think I should do?
Ask Kari: Should I allow my 15-year-old daughter to get a piercing?
My teenage daughter and I are fighting about her desire to get her ear cartilage pierced. She is 15 and feels that she can make her own decisions about her appearance, but I do not agree. I feel that she needs to wait until she is 18 and an adult before doing something to her body that she may regret. Her 16th birthday is coming up and she is constantly asking me if I will allow her to pierce her ear as a birthday present. What do you think I should do?
Ask Kari: Should I financially support my mother-in-law who can no longer pay her bills?
My mother-in-law is a kind, sweet woman but has a history of making poor financial choices and now can no longer pay her bills. She is divorced and has no savings. My wife would like us to help her out and if needed move her into our home. I am not happy that we have to pay for her expenses, but I definitely do not think we should move her into our home. Plus, she has other children to help her out besides my wife and I. What do you think we should do?

What I want patients to know:
1. They matter
2. Their feelings are normal
3. They can move their life forward
4. Say the whole thing
5. Living well is a daily practice
