Getting to know Carla Ronk
Carla Ronk, LMFT, holds a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. I have expertise in treating recovery and addiction, relationship conflict, domestic violence, trauma, personality disorders, and the challenges relationships present. These experiences have provided opportunities to assist clients in empowering themselves to process and commit to improving their insight toward positive change. I utilize Person-Centered, Rogerian, Motivational Interviewing, and Jungian approaches in my practice.
My approach
I integrate Person-Centered, Rogerian, Motivational Interviewing, and Jungian methods to support each client's unique journey.
My focus
With over eight years as an LMFT, I specialize in recovery and addiction (including trauma, personality disorders, and codependency).
My communication style
My goal in therapy is to develop a trusting relationship where you can safely process your inner child and embrace your authentic self.
My journey to therapy
Having experienced my own childhood and early adulthood trauma and engaged in 13 years of therapy, I have drawn from the approaches that helped me �find my voice� with others-a process I find tremendously gratifying.
My goals for you
I aim to equip clients with coping skills and resources throughout therapy, often providing homework to support independent functioning.
My first session with you
I offer unconditional positive regard and emotional support in a safe, comforting, and non-judgmental environment where we can build rapport together.

Kaiser referral. She has been very supportive and helpful. I’ve had several difficult senior years after losing my eldest son in 2020, followed by additional traumatic experiences in a cluster of 6+ years. Carla has been an amazing supportive professional. Her timeline from my earliest childhood memories to current life was an eye opening experience. I’m thankful that my lucky guess therapist pick was Carla.

Carla has been an enormous support through very unstable times for me. Her ability to show both compassion and concern has helped me to ground myself and helped me to see and realize things in my life more objectively than I was doing on my own. 1000% recommendations
