Carla Jack, LMHC — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Carla!

I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts and mental health experiences. I focus on working with adults navigating the unique challenges of life between ages 25-40.

My focus

I work with clients struggling with depression, OCD, anxiety, panic, fear, trauma, and bipolar disorder. I also support those experiencing decreased functioning due to adjustment issues, domestic violence, anger management, relationship stress, family dysfunction, and illness.

My approach

I help you share your story while identifying unhelpful thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be contributing to mental health challenges. Through CBT strategies, we work on changing how you think, feel, and behave to improve your overall mental health.

My communication style

I create a non-judgmental, trusted space where you can share your story. I'm warm, inviting, compassionate, empathetic, and patient. I encourage you to go at your own pace to build trust in the process.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began with an interest in studying groups of people, but I discovered I was more passionate about working with individuals and helping them navigate their unique challenges.

My goals for you

Goal setting is collaborative. You share the goals you're prioritizing, and I help you structure the process and steps to achieve them. We assess progress together throughout our work.

Our first session

I focus on getting to know you and establishing our therapeutic relationship. I'll gather basic information about you and why you're starting therapy. I also explain the therapeutic process, expectations, and guidelines.
