Meet Carla!
Asking for help takes incredible bravery and self-knowledge. It is an underrated strength. It allows us to do more than we could ever do by ourselves. No matter what brought you here, you are already doing better because you have made the difficult step of acknowledging that you need help.
I would love to chat and see if I would be a good passenger on you or your children’s journey to mental health wellness. I work primarily with children and adolescents using primarily play and cognitive-based modalities. I received training in play therapy, trust-based relational intervention, and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy. Other settings I have worked in include community agencies, residential/outpatient substance abuse facilities, and schools.
No matter where you are at and wherever you plan to go, my goal is to get you there using your strengths and values because this is your life. You are in the driver’s seat. Where do you want to go?
