Carla is comfortable incorporating a client’s faith when that is important, or working from a secular perspective when preferred. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is reviewed regularly. Practical strategies and small, achievable steps are emphasized throughout.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Carla describes her practice as grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage symptoms and change patterns. One common approach is skill building for stress and anxiety reduction, which involves learning and practicing breathing, grounding, and behavioral strategies to reduce day-to-day distress. This approach helps with panic, persistent worry, and managing overwhelming moments.Another component focuses on processing trauma and strong emotions through structured discussion and gradual exposure to difficult memories or triggers. This work aims to reduce the intensity of painful reactions and improve functioning in relationships and daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting plans over time.
