Karla Corro

I have a strong passion for learning about the importance of mental health and decided to complete my graduate studies at Capella University. I graduated with a Master’s in Clinical Counseling and completed my practicum hours at a mental health hospital in San Antonio. I have been providing services to the following age groups: aged-school children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience and can offer services to the following: grief, transitions, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, attachment, relationships, and codependency. My well-rounded experience has allowed me to make connections and provide services to people from different backgrounds.

I utilize a strength-based and an integrative approach exploring the various areas of a person’slife to include emotional, physical, and social strengths. I also incorporate a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach which allows for an individual to be aware of one’s own thoughts and how it influences a behavior. I also have experience with Cognitive Processing Therapy which is utilized for individuals struggling with post-traumatic stress. The other modalities that I utilize include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused that can be effective to all age groups. We will work in different areas to include: distress tolerance, interpersonal relationships, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. I believe that remaining present in the moment allows for there to be a space for growth and introspection.

It t is my belief that the most important part of the counseling process is choosing the righttherapist! I provide all clients with the opportunity to decide to stay with me after our initial intake. This allows for there to be a comfortable and safe approach with no added pressures. I invite all who are seeking services to give me an opportunity to guide them and learn from all our own experiences in life. Counseling is the beginning of any journey and I welcome you to allow me to be a part of it.
