Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
Recovering from PTSD and trauma can feel intimidating, especially when painful memories of abuse begin to surface. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, steady, and compassionate space where you can begin to process what happened and discover that healing is possible. We can also work together to build healthier coping skills that support recovery and help reduce reliance on addictive behaviors. You do not have to face this alone—take the first step toward healing today.
