Hi there, I'm Carla!

I work with individuals, families, groups, and couples using an integrative approach. My primary focus areas include trauma and stress-related disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, grief, serious mental illness, and health promotion. I also provide psychodiagnostic testing for diagnostic clarification and treatment recommendations.

My focus

I work with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, groups, couples, and families. I'm most comfortable treating trauma and stress-related disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, grief, serious mental illness, adjustment disorders, and acculturative stress.

My approach

I believe in understanding the whole person—physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions. I rely on psychodynamic and humanistic principles to foster empathic attunement, insight, and collaborative problem-solving. I integrate CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused approaches to identify specific treatment goals.
