“I am so grateful for Karla. I was desperate and really needed help with my PPD but I was skeptical due to previous experiences with therapy. Karla made me feel heard, and seen. Even when I didn‚Äôt know what I wanted to discuss, she asked me questions that got me talking and thinking about how I felt. She gave me very realistic and manageable advice.”
