Our therapeutic techniques, services, and products are based on these elements. The Ousia philosophy consists of five steps, designed to facilitate an integrated experience:
​
Insight – a personalized consultation to access specific needs.
Cleanse – the process of removing the accumulation of stress, strain, tension and sluggishness within the body.
Nourish – appropriately selected skin care products are applied to address your individual needs.
Transform – the curative part of the treatment process that begins the rebalancing of the cells.
Restore – the accumulative benefits of the previous steps, the end result being balance and harmony.
My name is Kara Seeger. I am an experienced licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who cares deeply about people and their struggles.
I am passionate about working with children of all ages. I offer compassionate and practical interventions to support children facing a variety of problems. While my approach, in its essence, follows the path developed through my advanced degree in counseling psychology, I have also had excellent results employing my love of art in a soothing and therapeutic manner.
I often use the creative process of art therapy in a manner that is healing and life-enhancing. While a child’s thoughts and repressed feelings may be difficult to put into words, he or she can often find a safe emotional outlet of expression through art therapy.
I enjoy working with teens who are struggling through adolescence. I have led social skills, grief, conflict resolution, and eating disorder group therapy for teenagers.
I also treat adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties. In addition, I provide therapy to families and couples in intimate relationships to nurture change and development.
Please call or email me to set up a consultation so we can begin the healing process. I look forward to helping you.

Since 2004, Mountain Feed & Farm Supply has been a locally-owned and operated sustainable living convenience store in the heart of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Offering the finest products and services for small-scale, localized food production, we consider ourselves a best-solutions store for the homestead movement. As a full service farm supply, we can take our customers from production all the way through preservation, with everything in between, whether it's water tanks and irrigation supplies, bulk soils and organic fertilizers, propagation and harvesting equipment to canning and pickling supplies, cheese making supplies, butchering and sausage making supplies, brewing supplies and more. We also have an award winning nursery and year-round gift shop featuring local goods. We truly have something for everyone, but our ears are always open for new ideas and new ways to provide resources for living lighter on the land. As we realized a long time ago, it's not our store. It's yours.
