About

OCD isn't just limited to intrusive thoughts or behaviors. It can also affect various aspects of your daily life. I take a holistic approach to OCD therapy, considering your relationships, work, and overall well-being. We'll work together to identify goals and develop strategies to manage your symptoms. I'm here to listen and support you; I believe in creating an environment where you'll feel heard and respected. I also specialize in relationship issues, depression, and anxiety. I've always been drawn to helping people overcome their personal struggles and find inner peace.

      Karla is an absolute gem. Her energy and brightness makes me feel comfortable enough to tell her everything I am thinking and feeling. The advice she gives is extremely helpful and I always look forward to our next sessions even if I cry the entire previous session.

      Today Karla explained something I've struggled mightily with for the past 10 years. I feel like she gave me a priceless gift. I'm continually amazed by her insights and helpfulness. She is by far the best therapist I've ever had (and I've seen 4 others in my adult lifetime). The NOCD community and I are extremely lucky to have her.

      Karla is so sweet and understanding. She never judges and reminds me I never have to apologize for crying. I appreciate that so so much.

      More than any Therapist ever has, Karla helped me to cut through the fog and clear the path ahead. These two months have given me a completely different framework through which to view my patterns. I’m incredibly grateful that I was able to access such an excellent quality level of therapeutic process and therapist. the intro offer was such a fantastic opportunity for me as I wouldn’t have been able to go on this journey otherwise. Thank you Karla and NOCD. This experience has changed my life
