I have been working with adolescents, adults and families since the mid 1980's. Substance abuse, depression, anxiety, LGBT and family issues are the areas that I have the most experience in. I believe folks come to therapy because some aspects of their lives are not working...we will explore these issues and move to get you where you want and need to be. I have many years of various types of training, but the most important is to get people back to being comfortable, happy and productive in their own world. Compassion and humor are extremely important values to find in each of our lives!!

Being willing is a major factor to learning and growing through therapy. I strive to provide a safe space for people to explore emotional, mental, sexual, physical, and/or spiritual concerns. Do you feel disconnected from yourself & others? Are you struggling with your identity & accepting yourself? Are you feeling anxious or fearful? Do you not want to feel that way anymore but are unsure as to how? You possess the answers. Therapy provides an opportunity to be seen, heard, and validated while you find your answers. I will help facilitate and provide guidance through this client-led process.

Get unstuck! You don’t have to be ruled by your symptoms, you are so much more than them. It is natural to want to avoid unpleasant emotions. While this alleviates pain in the short term, it leads to more suffering and pain down the road. You don’t have to face this alone. Let me support you on the path to wholeness and becoming who you are meant to be.

The most common behavioral health issues Karla sees people for are post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, ADHD and/or substance use. “With substance use, it could be that someone is starting to have problems and wants to talk to a professional, or it could be a situation where a person has been in recovery and slipped back into using substances,” Karla says. “One in three people will experience a mental health issue in their lifetime. We are able to provide them with the understanding and help they need to feel better.”

The clients I have experienced often have had some not so great experiences with therapy in the past and have their guard up. They are looking to be listened to and to work on the goals they identify as important to them, they ultimately want someone they can trust and feel safe/comfortable with. The clients that I have worked with have a variety of issues they bring into services including anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting issues, relationship issues, communication struggles, ADHD, issues at school, self-harm and SI. They want to learn the tools to address their struggles in a realistic and achievable way.

My training has been quite diverse thus I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and needs. My ideal client is an individual who understands the need to seek help or guidance and is willing to work with me on these concerns. I have over 18 years of clinical experience and enjoy working with "systems" (e.g., schools, families, support systems). I prioritize consultation with schools when addressing school-based behaviors such as underachievement, learning disabilities, and bullying concerns. I take a "strength-based" approach, always attempting to work within the clients talents and building from that point forward.

Our childhood experiences can have a major influence on our development as human beings. If you experienced trauma or adversity as a child, you may find it harder to trust that the world is a safe place. Therapy can be an opportunity to explore these histories and gain insight into how they have shaped our identities, beliefs, and relationships. With these understandings, you can move forward confidently into a life that feels fulfilling.

Therapy can help you gain insights into your past, present, and future, and empower you to become the person you aspire to be. As a therapist, I believe that everyone deserves to feel empowered and in control of their life. When you feel in control, new opportunities and positive possibilities can emerge that you may have never considered before. My approach to therapy is to create a warm and welcoming space where all thoughts, feelings, and possibilities are welcomed. While therapy can be challenging, it can also be incredibly rewarding. My goal as your therapist is to help you feel a renewed sense of self-control.

Sometimes it feels like no matter what you do, you keep ending up in the same cycle. I seek to help clients identify those cycles and find a new path forward. I work with teens and adult clients to meet them where they are and move them toward where they want to be. I believe that counseling is led by the client and that you are the expert on your life. My job is to help you notice the little things and build new skills to tackle the bigger things.
