She/Her

Karla Rivera, LPC, helps people heal their relationship with themselves so they can live more authentically, with greater confidence, clarity, and connection. Her approach provides a safe, collaborative, and supportive space for clients to explore who they are and step into a more aligned, empowered version of themselves. Karla believes healing happens when we feel safe enough to be fully seen. She specializes in working with individuals navigating trauma, social anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression, drawing on evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Relational Therapy. These modalities equip clients with practical tools for managing emotions, shifting unhelpful patterns, deepening self-understanding, and developing healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
