Carla Clements, LMFT, believes that creating a sense of safety is the cornerstone for fostering change in individuals' lives. She champions the notion that everyone deserves to feel valued for who they are. Many people may find that their life experiences, often rooted in childhood, have led them to feel undeserving of happiness and positive experiences. Carla emphasizes the importance of unlearning these distorted messages from the past. With her guidance, individuals can uncover barriers to their healing and cultivate a newfound sense of worth. Her extensive expertise covers a range of challenges, including depression, chemical addiction, love and sex addiction, anxiety, domestic abuse, developmental trauma (CPTSD), and low self-esteem. Carla also has a special interest in aiding clients on their journeys of non-conventional spiritual awakening and employs brain-based healing techniques in her practice. She firmly believes that by shifting focus to more positive thoughts, individuals can retrain their brains to function collaboratively, countering tendencies towards fear, stress, and anxiety. Additionally, her therapeutic approach often incorporates a Buddhist perspective, adding depth to her methods in supporting clients through addiction recovery and trauma-focused therapy.
