“Carla is a very wonderful therapist. I have been seeing her for two years consecutively. Carla cares about her clients and she is friendly warm and shows up as that “big sister / friend” you always had or wish you had. Carla is supportive and she is not judgemental. She understands when challenges take more time to process and she doesn’t place any guilt or fault on her clients when they make decisions that aren’t always right to others. Carla is consistent, she makes time and she really cares.”

Getting to know Carla Monique Fort
You're here! Right here, right now! You may not be there yet, but you have already taken a step toward facing challenges with a strength you never knew you had. Besides, it doesn't hurt to get a little assistance along the way. I'm here to help you. Let me tell you something: nothing is as remarkable as seeing positive change in my clients! Helping you make even the smallest steps toward your goal every day brings me joy, and I make sure to let you know when I've noticed your progress. Even when they seem too small to notice, I'll notice! You'll be surprised how much a little positivity can help.
I have been a counselor for more than a decade. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Georgia State University. I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified rehabilitation counselor with additional experience helping individuals get back to work and attain the highest success possible after experiencing life-changing issues. I have helped people with almost everything you can think of-from severe mental health concerns to mild ones. I have multicultural experience, having lived in and visited many different countries (experience does help!). I've learned a lot about cultural differences and appreciation. I respect the variation we have as humans. I understand that there are times when struggles and challenges approach us, and we need a little extra boost to work through them. I am here to help!
When I counsel, my style is energetic, compassionate, and supportive. I praise your progress and can show you how to be proud of your efforts and steps in the right direction. I am client-centered and want to listen to you and be as helpful as is humanly possible. I am a firm believer in positive psychology because I love highlighting your strengths! I love to empower my clients. I can't wait to meet you!
What should a new client know about working with you?
During our sessions, clients can expect to gain a full on understanding of the psychological elements that we discuss and explore how it may or may not impact them. We will also develop goals and objectives on how to reach those goals as we work through this journey together.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Carla from the beginning has been a warm ear and great listener! Gives great feedback with appropriate ways to deal with the topic at hand. Carla has been instrumental in helping me to be a better communicator and challenging me to be open in my mindfulness but also allowing me to vent when needed. Carla has created a safe space for me to be vulnerable and also comfortable to share personal things. I am enjoying my sessions with Carla!
