Counseling and supporting those living with traumatic grief and bereavement is her main focus of work. Karla works from a client-centered perspective based in the yogic teaching that we are already whole and perfect as we are. Even when we don't feel that way.
Work with Karla can include mindfulness and meditation training, yoga-informed body and movement work, yoga-based philosophic and introspective work, hypnosis and trance work, as well as guided visualization, personalized yoga nidra, writing, journaling, mandala artwork, and other forms of expressive modalities. Reiki,chakra work and use of tarot and the deep symbolism held there may also be part of your journey as you navigate your path toward remembering your wholeness. She is also a provider of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, partnering with an organization called Journey Clinical.
As a bereaved mother and a trained therapist, Karla has deep personal, as well as clinical, understanding of the difficult issues facing those grieving the deaths of loved ones. Finding your own path toward wholeness, integration, and growth on the dark, yet often stunningly beautiful, journey through grief and life is not easy. She knows how hard it is when someone you love deeply has died. Your journey is unique, but you are not alone.
