Expert Panelist

Wellness & Mindfulness
CARLA is a clinical psychologist and wellness expert based in Sonoma County, California. In addition to her clinical practice, she is deeply invested in her roles as an author, consultant, advocate, speaker and podcaster. With a holistic, body-mind-spirit approach, she specializes in improving professional and personal relationships through mindfulness and healthy communication skills. 

Viewing self-development as the foundation for optimal wellness, Carla’s work focuses on building healthy intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships through increased self-awareness. Her work blends traditional psychotherapy with alternative mindfulness practices to support inner freedom, awareness and balance.

Carla's latest book, Date Smart: Transform Your Relationships and Love Fearlessly, joins her other highly acclaimed titles Joy from Fear: Create the Life of Your Dreams by Making Fear Your Friend and Aging Joyfully. She also contributes her expertise publicly as a speaker and through top-notch media outlets including The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, NBC, The New York Times, USA Today, Forbes, The Los Angeles Times, Oprah, HuffPost, Reader’s Digest, Psychology Today, Parade, GQ, Women’s Health, Architectural Digest, Men’s Health, and more.

Readers might recognize Carla from her appearance on Sanctuary's Coffee & Conversation show and via our interactive Ask an Expert section. Sanctuary is thrilled to have her onboard as a go-to expert.
​
Statement: My vocation in life is to help others; I had felt this calling in my very soul from an extremely young age. I believe that Sanctuary’s message and goals are very much aligned with my passions and callings. To me, the essence of Sanctuary is helping women find themselves, love themselves, and embrace the world – and each other – in collaborative ways. There are many ways to grow and give back to the world. There are countless ways to evolve and unfold as women and sacred beings. There are many ways to share our gifts – to use what the Divine has given us to make ourselves and the world a better place. Sanctuary gives me the opportunity to uplift others in the most beautiful ways. I am deeply grateful to be a member of a community that honors individuality, connection, self-development and collaboration.
