Hola! My name is Carla and I am a first generation Mexican-American and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 8 years of experience working with children, adolescents, their families, and adults.  My passion lies in helping others by using a holistic approach and providing a nonjudgmental and safe space where clients can feel comfortable to process their thoughts, emotions, and traumas. I know that the trust between a client and a therapist is essential. I am fluent in Spanish, an LGBTQ+ ally, and an advocate for self-care and mindfulness. In my personal time, I love to travel, read, and spend time with friends, family, and my two dogs. I am adept at using a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Brainspotting (BSP), trauma-informed care, an anti-racism approach, art therapy, trauma-informed yoga, and person-centered techniques. I am accepting new clients. I do not accept insurance at this time. Appointments are telehealth only. Want to talk and see if we're a good match? Call, text, or email me to schedule a free consultation!
