About My Clients

I provide counseling to adults, teens, children, and families who are warmly welcomed and active participants in therapy at my office or via online telehealth.

My Background and Approach

Counseling at this office offers creative avenues for self expression as well as more formal assessments for treatment planning. Acceptance Therapy, including Trauma Focused ACT, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/CBT are integral to my counseling approach. In addition, I have a specific expertise in the treatment of Eating Disorders, OCD and as an ADHD-CCSP Certified Clinical Services Provider. I am licensed to provide counseling services in North Carolina, Indiana and Missouri.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Karla’s priority is for persons to experience compassion and empathy with a sense of safety during appointments. Interactions will seek to increase client insight related to experiences and information to build skills to enable action that are meaningful and valued.
