How do we move through pain, loss, frustration, trauma or anxiety unless we learn skills & gain new insights or perspectives to do so? There's no reason to be held back by the hurdles to change, to effective communication, greater collaboration and fundamental healing. Karla focuses on practical details for today as well as the larger life picture. We will identify & engage your existing strengths and abilities in addition to helping you master new skills and gain understanding of what is blocking you. Karla works with your unique situation of loss, trauma, relationship challenges & the demands or limitations of your present life.
Sometimes, our perspectives or our behaviours are limited by our awareness of the options. Just like any other aspect of life, we must learn the unique skills and acquire our new insights or perspectives that allow us to successfully move through life’s challenges such as pain, loss, change, trauma or anxiety. Sometimes we need another set of skilled eyes.
We will focus on the practical details of today while seeking understanding of a larger life picture of the past and preparing for a more satisfying future. All lives are lived with losses, transitions & unique challenges. Professional guidance can help you move in a healthier way, aware of beauty, laughter & joy even while surrounded by frustration or pain.
