About Carla

Carla Rawls is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns like self-esteem, career challenges, coping with life changes, ADHD, stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and depression. Sessions are presented in straightforward, practical terms and aimed at helping people manage day-to-day problems and decisions.

Carla focuses on building on a client's existing strengths. She treats clients as the experts on their own story and helps them notice what already works. Conversations are direct and task-focused at times, and reflective at others, depending on what the client needs that week.

Her background includes workplace coaching and support for professional development. That experience informs sessions about career stress, motivation, and confidence. Clients can expect help setting realistic goals and practicing new ways to respond under pressure.

When anger is a concern, the work often includes identifying triggers, learning moment-to-moment strategies to reduce reactivity, and practicing clearer communication. For ADHD and executive coaching, sessions look at routines, organization, and breaking tasks into manageable steps.

Carla accepts international clients and works in English. She uses a subscription billing model that can be canceled at any time; fees vary by location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How sessions work

Approaches and how online sessions work

Carla uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and practical change. One common approach is skills training for emotional regulation, which teaches moment-to-moment strategies to reduce reactivity and handle strong feelings more effectively. This is useful for anger, stress, and anxiety.

Another approach is problem-focused coaching for career and executive concerns. That method breaks large tasks into smaller steps, builds routines, and sets measurable goals to improve motivation and workplace functioning. For ADHD-related challenges, the work often centers on organization, planning, and interrupting unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Sessions can shift as needs change so the plan stays practical and relevant.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, offer quicker check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats also let clients choose shorter or camera-free check-ins when that suits their day.
