Carla Guillaume
Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, supported, and able to show up as you are. I bring warmth, compassion, and genuine respect for each person’s story, while helping clients work toward greater clarity, healing, and growth.
I am thoughtful about integrating aspects of a client’s culture into the therapeutic process when appropriate, because I understand that healing does not happen in a vacuum.
My approach is collaborative and personalized, with care that honors your experiences, values, and the unique path that has shaped who you are.
First session
In our first session, we will spend time getting to know one another and discussing what brought you to therapy. I will ask about your current concerns, history, coping strategies, and goals, while making space for what feels most important to share. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and see if I feel like the right fit. There is no pressure to share everything at once. Together, we will move at a pace that feels manageable for you.
Strengths
My greatest strengths as a therapist are creating a space where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow. I bring warmth, compassion, and authenticity to my work, using a collaborative approach that is tailored to each person. I help clients explore patterns that may be keeping them stuck while honoring their lived experiences, values, and cultural background. My goal is to support clients in gaining clarity, healing, and a stronger sense of self.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to serve adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and concerns related to self-worth or identity. I work well with clients who want to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and patterns while also learning practical tools to create meaningful change. I aim to support and empower clients, ensuring that they feel heard as they build insight, strengthen coping skills, and move toward healthier relationships with themselves and others.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
I use an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from CBT, ACT, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches based on each client’s needs. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, and challenges with self-worth or identity. In our work together, I help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, patterns, and past experiences while also building practical tools for coping and change.
