Carla Turner
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
I believe in a holistic approach to mental health and well-being, which provides a deeper understanding of our patterns and behaviors.
If you are reading this, chances are you have been through difficult and painful experiences, and I want you to know that you are not alone. Are you ready to take the first step towards healing? Are you willing to approach therapy with an open mind and a willingness to try new things? If you have experienced childhood trauma, you may be struggling with a wide range of symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, or a general feeling of disconnect from yourself and others. You may also be struggling with issues related to self-worth, trust, sexuality, relationships, substance abuse and boundary setting.
