My passion for this work stems from personal experiences and the transformative power of therapy in my own life. I have seen firsthand how therapy can help people build resilience, develop coping skills, and find meaning in difficult experiences.
My approach is integrative, which means that I draw upon a variety of therapeutic techniques and modalities to create a personalized treatment plan for my clients. I incorporate other holistic practices such as mindfulness and meditation into my sessions to help clients connect with their bodies and emotions in a deeper way.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and my goal is to create a safe and supportive space for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. I strive to create a warm and empathetic atmosphere where clients feel heard, seen, and understood. If you are struggling, reach out! Together, we can work towards healing and growth.

My goal as a therapist is to guide you in the right direction to reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been buried in the past. Through the use of Psychoanalytic Therapy and a Person Centered Approach, together we will work to uncover what it is that you need to discover your deepest most authentic self.
Taking the step to invest in yourself can be both difficult and scary. If you are here reading this then I commend you for your strength and bravery.

Navigating life’s twists and turns can be overwhelming. We may feel stuck, lost, alone, or even disconnected from who we are and what we want. We may struggle to manage our emotions, have difficulty in our relationships, or feel overwhelmed with our responsibilities. I understand the deep importance for us to feel connected to others, to be understood, and the immense value of a non-judgmental space to express ourselves. Together, we will collaborate to identify your unique goals and develop strategies to help you achieve them.
Using a holistic and humanistic lens, we work to identify areas you’d like to strengthen and improve. Utilizing approaches including CBT, strengths-based, solution-focused, and mindfulness techniques we work to understand thoughts, behaviors, and emotions, practice skills to combat life stressors, increase self-efficacy, and bring calm to our mind and body.

My favorite quote ends with, “I hope you fall in love with being alive.” As someone who has experienced depression/anxiety firsthand this quote is something that truly resonates with me. As a therapist, I believe everyone has their own story and struggles which encompasses who they really are. Using cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques, we will work together to create a life you can fall in love with.
I have experience working with children, adolescents and adults and I understand how different life stages bring new challenges. I am dedicated to creating personalized goals with my client’s, keeping their specific needs in mind. For children, I work collaboratively with the parents to ensure all goals and needs are being met.
My goal is to create an environment of warmth, empathy, and inclusion to nurture a better mental health environment for my client. I understand how difficult making the first step can be, you are not alone! I look forward to working on this journey together.
Karla Lizette Wolfson MA, LMHC
As a therapist, my goal is to provide my clients with a warm and compassionate environment free from the fear of judgment and criticism. I understand that each person is unique and are all learning how to work through their own life’s challenges. I don’t believe that therapy is a one-size-fits-all approach and I stress the importance of addressing my client’s specific needs to truly feel heard, validated, and in control.
Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness techniques, I teach my clients how to identify and challenge their own negative thought patterns, allowing them to return to living in the present and in turn gain control of their own lives.

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become”
You have the power to make change happen In your life, even when you feel powerless. As a mental health counselor, my goal is to help people work through their challenges, improve their overall wellbeing, and to empower clients to make the changes necessary to live a life worth living.
By, utilizing eastern principles of Buddhist psychology coupled with western evidence based techniques, I will transition my clients to a place of emotional agility and improved quality of life by processing their past experiences, identifying patterns, and assisting in developing coping skills.
Ashley Goldstein MA, LMHC
Wisdom develops as wounds heal, and the process is never linear. We will experience ups and downs, but it is important to remember that we are still moving forward.
As a clinical mental health counselor, my primary objective is to provide individuals with the opportunity to be seen, heard, and acknowledged for their unique struggles. It's often these challenging conversations that we tend to shy away from, even though they are the ones we most desperately need. By collaborating together, we can focus on taking small steps that lead you towards your desired destination.
In my approach, I aim to integrate various therapeutic techniques tailored to your specific needs, drawing from evidence-based practices. By providing an open and warm space to hold conversations surrounding mental health, it allows us to help improve our lives by understanding our emotions and using them wisely so that they help rather than hinder our success and well-being.
I am grateful to be a part of the journey alongside the individuals I work with to discover what works best for
them together.

As someone who has experienced both sides of the therapist's room, I can empathize with the challenges of finding the right therapist to connect with. My personal journey through therapy has profoundly influenced my approach to create a nurturing and secure environment for you to openly express your thoughts and feelings.

With a focus on reframing thought patterns, cultivating mindfulness, and encouraging self-care and self-compassion, I aim to equip you with the tools necessary to alleviate overwhelming emotions and discomfort, helping you progress towards your personal goals.
My dedication to this field drives me to assist individuals in identifying their most significant challenges, processing life's hardships, and empowering them to regain control over their emotions by recognizing their inherent strengths. It's important to remember that seeking support is a sign of resilience and inner strength, and I'm here to remind you of that.
I aspire to leave a lasting, positive impact on all my clients, guiding them through their future endeavors. Healing is a unique and non-linear journey, and that's perfectly okay. It's time to extend yourself the grace and compassion you deserve as you embark on this transformative journey through the power of therapy.

Opening up to someone new can feel daunting, and my goal is to make your experience in therapy as comfortable as possible by providing a welcoming, non-judgmental space. I pull from different modalities including cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational, and psychodynamic to create individualized treatment plans based on the needs of each client. Therapy is a team effort, so if you are ready to work towards the best version of yourself, I am happy to assist you in getting there!
I have worked with a range of clients of varying backgrounds, ages, and genders! If you struggle with panic attacks/anxiety, time-management, communication skills, phobias, depression, or grief, I am here to help you overcome those obstacles. My goal is to provide a safe environment for clients to discuss what’s on their mind; some sessions may be lighter, others may feel more emotionally heavy, but I will be there to help you cope with any emotions that surface.
I look forward to helping you on your journey towards self-improvement!
