I provide individual, family, couples and group therapy services in Alcoa, TN.
With my approach, using a reliable methodology known as Acceptance and Integration Training® (AAIT™), you will feel better quickly without having to rehash your past.
My approach
I work with clients from 14 years of age to 80 from a variety of populations, including clients who have past trauma, blended family issues, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ-related issues, grief, marital issues, and custody issues. We will work together to address your unique problems using the promising AAIT™ model to quickly relieve suffering and facilitate healing.
I have spent 20+ years as a psychotherapist.
My practice combines both psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapies. After completing an intensive 10 month study of Acceptance and Integration Training® (AAIT™), this is my preferred method of treatment.
In-person and remote options
My office is located in Alcoa, convenient to Knoxville and Maryville. Due to Covid-19 and recommendations from the CDC and the State of Tennessee, I also provide services via HIPAA secure video and in-office face-to-face. Whatever you feel most comfortable with, I will accommodate your needs.

“I honestly feel happy for the first time in years, thanks to Carla.”
— Woman in her 50s who journeys with chronic mental illness
I weigh the sea
I weigh the storm
I weigh a thousand stories long.
I weigh my mother’s fortitude and my father’s eyes
I weigh the way they look at me
I weigh all the pain and trauma that made me see
that I have more galaxies in me than tragedies.
We all weigh joys and darkness and goodness and sin
you see, we are infinite in this skin we’re in.
So when they ask you what you weigh
you don’t need to look down at any scale.
Instead, simply tell them the truth,
tell them how you
weigh whole universes
and storms and scars and stories too.
