Karla Ciombor

Karla Ciombor is a dedicated counselor with a passion for supporting adult and adolescent clients facing mood and substance use disorders. With extensive experience in crisis management—particularly in situations involving suicide risk and domestic violence—she understands the complexities of these challenges. Karla recognizes that the family system is often impacted when an individual struggles, and she works closely with both clients and their family members to navigate the recovery process together. Her belief is that past life experiences and personal values significantly influence how individuals think and behave in the present. Consequently, her therapeutic approach is designed to assist clients in identifying their core beliefs and values, helping them set personal goals and learn healthy coping skills for effective symptom management. Drawing on the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Karla strives to create a counseling environment characterized by collaboration, acceptance, and safety—free of judgment and worthy of trust. Her ultimate aim is to help clients find peace of mind through the transformative work they undertake together.
