Karla Funches, LPC, CADC, NCC

Diverse Adult

I am a licensed professional counselor and certified addictions counselor who is committed to treating adult individuals, LGBTIQA and couples. Working in concert with clients with unconditional positive regard is my area of interest when clients are struggling with anxiety, depression, loss/grief (traditional and nontraditional), addiction/recovery. 

I am a graduate of Adler University where I received my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health counseling.  I use a systemic and strengths-based approach in working with clients and the relationships they have in their lives. Using an integrative model of change, I highlight the strength of a variety of theories to fit the client’s identified needs.

I am both a nurturing and direct therapist, displaying patience and empathy. With a client’s aspirations in mind, I holds clients accountable for their own individual desired change. I provide a safe and secure relationship with clients where they can process their vulnerabilities.
