As a fellow clinician in the community, I know and see (even behind the scenes) that the founder of this practice genuinely cares about her community. She participates both professionally and on a volunteer basis in efforts to uplift the people around her. Kara has gone out of her way to take clients onto her caseload, even when it is a stretch. I especially appreciate the care, support, and validation she stands for within the LGBTQIA-2S+ community. Ancora initially did not take insurance for (very valid) philosophical reasons. Shifting their practice to meet the community where they are has allowed for more accessibility to care (which is sorely needed in general and especially in Hillsboro) for people seeking LGBTQIA-2S+ competent clinicians who will accept their insurance. Thank you, Kara, for all that you do. You make Hillsboro a better place to live and practice.
