Karla’s goal is to create an environment that is comfortable, empathetic, safe, and non-judgmental. Her approach is informed by her work witnessing the ways in which many aspects of life (housing, work, economic security, racial identity, gender identity, and sexuality) impact mental health. She takes a strength-based approach that is client-centered and works with people to determine what tools work best for them at the time; healing is not always linear.
