About Carla Brown (She/Her)

Hi, I’m Carla!

As a social worker for forty years, and a therapist for the last fourteen years, I strongly believe that anyone experiencing unmanageable emotional distress should take constructive steps to improve matters. Despite the availability of various technological and media resources today, some issues require a personal touch.

This is where I come in! I provide a safe and confidential forum to explore sensitive, personal issues that require serious attention. I offer support, insight, and problem-solving assistance to learn helpful and enlightening truths about yourself and your abilities to navigate a challenging, unpredictable, sometimes chaotic world. We’ll explore relevant values, communication styles, thinking patterns, family dynamics, coping skills, and the quality of relationships you share with others — and yourself.

Our time together will involve engaging in self-exploration, sharpening critical thinking skills, and achieving a realistic, balanced perspective about yourself and your roles in life.

If you think we’d be a good fit, please contact call LifeStance Health to schedule a telehealth appointment. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Carla is an absolute pleasure to work with. I experienced my worst nightmare in losing my mother and she helped me cope with that loss which I never thought I would be able to. Can we clone Carla to make 100 more of her?!? The world would be a better place 😊
