As a licensed therapist in Georgia, I bring 14 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on creating a compassionate, affirming space where clients can explore their unique challenges and strengths. I specialize in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and life transitions, with a deep commitment to helping individuals develop self-understanding and resilience.
My therapeutic work focuses on a wide range of personal experiences, including social anxiety, workplace challenges, multicultural concerns, and navigating significant life changes. I'm particularly passionate about supporting women's issues, addressing self-esteem, and helping clients work through feelings of isolation, shame, and personal growth.
I believe in a holistic, person-centered approach that honors each individual's unique journey. Whether you're struggling with communication, seeking purpose, or working through complex emotional patterns, I'm here to provide thoughtful, empathetic guidance that supports your path to healing and self-discovery.

I was new to therapy, and while the first therapist I chose was lovely, my intuition was telling me to look again. Then I found Carla, oh what a gem! I enjoy speaking with Carla because while she is professional, you also feel as though you are speaking with one of your best friends. The cool thing about her is you don't have to be concerned about her spilling your tea to anyone else :) She listens and allows you to express your feelings and what is going on in your life. Once I complete a call with her, I feel lighter and usually have had a wonderful laugh or 20 in our sessions. I can be open and transparent about my relationship with God and anything else that is important to me. I do not have a loss for words, I talk a lot, and she takes it all in. That in itself is no small fete! LOL
I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a therapist that truly listens, treats you with respect, encourages you to do better, and is just a joy to talk to.

Carla is an amazing person to speak to. There have been many times where she have listened to me ramble about so much and still found ways to help understand and empathize the feelings I have been feeling. She's very understanding, she listens, and knows how to relate a lot of the things I've been experiencing and sharing. I highly recommend her to a lot of people who doesn't know too much about her and her practice. She's very honest, open, and transparent which makes relating her experiences to yours very easy and it just makes it that much easier to open up to her without feeling judged.

Carla has a way of communicating with me that compares to the feeling of talking to a true friend. She listens, offers insight to why I might be feeling the way I do, provides me with tools and techniques to help me work through the feelings and worries I have, and has a way of being relatable without making me feel unimportant or second to the conversation. I’ve only had a few sessions with her so far and can already see the positive affects that her therapy sessions have had on my behavior and emotional well-being. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for help!
