As a licensed clinical social worker, I, Karla Drake, provide holistic psychotherapy and wellness services to individuals who are struggling with past or recent negative life experiences. Our goal is to help you achieve balance and wellness in your mind, body, and spirit, and to empower you with the skills and strategies necessary to maintain that balance in the face of life's challenges.

Our Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is based on science and research, and is informed by a holistic perspective that considers the complex interplay between your physical, emotional, and spiritual experiences. I draw on a range of theoretical frameworks and therapeutic models, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Gestalt Therapy, and Neurofeedback Therapy, to create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs and goals.

The Therapeutic Models We Use

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): This evidence-based therapy is used to help individuals process and overcome the negative effects of traumatic experiences. EMDR uses eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to process traumatic memories and reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
• Gestalt Therapy: This holistic approach emphasizes the importance of the present moment and encourages individuals to focus on their immediate experiences, rather than dwelling on past traumas or worrying about the future. Gestalt therapy aims to increase self-awareness and acceptance of one's emotions and experiences.
• Neurofeedback Therapy: This form of biofeedback uses brain activity to provide individuals with a sense of control over their brain function and behavior. Neurofeedback can help individuals learn to self-regulate their emotions and behaviors, and can be used to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions.
