Life sometimes takes us in directions that are unknown, unwanted, unexpected and out of our control. When it does, it can appear overwhelming and difficult to face these issues and emotions by ourselves. Sometimes we feel that is the only option in order to succeed. What we tend to forget is life is a journey that we should take as a community and not individually. We can overcome theses issues together. My role would be to ride alongside with you, supportively and with an open mind to help you achieve the life that best fits you.

If you are pregnant or you had your baby and you are experiencing depression or anxiety I can help. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION and other POSTPARTUM MOOD DISORDERS. Also, I am a Registered Nurse and Certified Childbirth Educator.

These changes along with complications will add much distress to your motherhood.

Trusting a complete stranger is not easy, much less opening up to one. As a professional I myself have found this to be difficult. I want to reassure once you decide to enter the office you can take a deep breath and let it out. I provide a comfortable at home feel when it comes to working with clients. We will work together to identify and prioritize your needs and work towards your goals. I will hold you accountable in doing your part and know that I will walk along side you while progress and change is made.

Are you looking for ways to connect with your existing strengths while gaining awareness and insight into your thoughts and feelings? Do you seek finding meaning within your unique experience in the world? Do you just need a compassionate yet pragmatic sounding board to help you reflect upon who you are? Know that your choice to be open to therapy is the first step in real, positive change in your life. The desire to do what it takes to lead a more balanced, harmonious internal and external life is the most important trait in finding success with therapy.

Are you someone who takes care of everybody else? Do you often find yourself drained and depleted when you take care of others? Are you a person who says yes to everything even when deep down inside you should have said no, but you feel guilty because a part of your identity is to serve others. The number one question is, who is taking care of you? At this point you may feel persistent, sadness, stress or anxiousness. Speaking with friends and family is not helping because they just do not understand. You are now dealing with a pile of shame, guilt, and doubt.

Hi, I'm Carla, an LPC in Texas. I have worked with adolescents, adults, and families for over nine years in non-profit social services agencies. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor's of Art in 2012 and my Master's of Art in Professional Counseling from Amberton University in Dallas, Texas, in 2019. My goal as a therapist is to help teach you a set of tools to help you live a fulfilling and independent life. I work primarily with mood disorders (including depression and Bipolar disorders), personality disorders, trauma/PTSD, and stress management.

I specialize in brief therapy with a solution-focused approach using my client's strengths to arrive at solutions to their current problem. Oftentimes, these solutions can be practiced and implemented in a relatively short period of time. If necessary, I use additional tools such as cognitive behavioral therapy and hypnosis.

Welcome! If you are here is because you have taken an active role in your healing. I can help by guiding you through those confusing rough areas where you could really use an impartial and non judgmental guide. I do this by helping you identify the areas of your life that need some work through insight, identifying patterns that are no longer working even if they did a wonderful job of helping you survive in the past, reworking emotional responses that no longer align with your current values or just being there supporting you as you process difficult emotions. Let me join you on your path to healthier relationships.
