Why WELLBEING STRATEGIES For AEC/SUSTAINABILITY PROFESSIONALS

"Emotional skills are as crucial

for advancing climate justice as

technical or political skills."

~Sarah J. Ray - Author of 'A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety'

I came across Sarah's book at a pivotal point in my career and it helped me realize this:

My main contribution to the Climate Justice Movement arises from weaving my experience of 30 years in the AEC industry with my coaching practice and supporting my peers, the everyday activists, in achieving Optimal Performance.

What my clients say

“Carla offered a type of coaching that follows the trail of a personal inquiry by asking questions that allowed me to dig deeper into my goals and visions for myself. I was surprised by the positive message my future self offered to my present self. Since I have had the session with Carla I have already gone back a couple of times to this message to help me move forward with hope and a focused intention. I would recommend this inquiry to anybody at any age as a way to build confidence towards future aspirations.”
—Susanne S. [Architect]
“Carla's ability to astutely sift through the racing thoughts and powerful feelings I was experiencing - during a time of significant change in my life - helped me find the stillness and clarity that I needed to weather the storm. This calm focus has stayed with me for months now, serving me - and those whose lives I impact - very well.”
—Mary S. [Fundraising Consultant]
"Carla was very helpful in prompting me to understand how to focus my time and energies and to set up a process for moving through multiple tasks more efficiently. In short: How to get more done in my day. One important part of her conversational process is returning to the question of 'what do I want?' That question helped me hone a broader decision-making path about where (and how) to spend my time in life, as well as in my workday and in my daily personal life."
—Charlie S. [Architect]
"At the beginning of my session with Carla, imagining my future felt sad and painful. By the end of our session, it was much easier to picture a future version of myself happy and doing meaningful and fulfilling work."
—Larissa K. [Teams Coordinator]
“My experience working with Carla has been exceptional. I was a bit uncertain at the beginning, but her respectful and calm demeanor allowed me to feel very comfortable during our sessions. In working with her, I have begun to experience a wide range of emotions I had no idea I was holding onto and learn to be okay with that. If feels empowering to discover so many new things about myself and my own relationship to others around me. I have been recommending her work to all my friends and co-workers ever since!”
—Julia S. [Software Engineer]
“Carla is an amazing practitioner. In my sessions with her, I always feel truly heard and understood in a way that I have not experienced anywhere else. Her deep and gentle curiosity allowed me to discover such deep parts of myself that I did not even know existed. Carla’s loving compassion has allowed me to feel safe and reassured while addressing some of the most significant and challenging aspects of my life. At the end of the session, I always come out with changes in myself that I did not even think possible, as well as a deeper understanding and appreciation of myself and the way I have been up to that point. Ultimately her presence itself is a gift - I recommend her wholeheartedly.
—Aya O. [Financial Planner]
“I have no qualms recommending Carla. This is noteworthy, because I do have qualms recommending some people. I wasn’t expecting much heading into our session, yet left blown away.
Carla is an intuitively stunning representation of what it is to be a Transformational NLP practitioner. She’s gracious, intuitive, patient, grounded, warm, and insightful. She held space with self-possessed confidence, instincts, warmth, and a certain gorgeousness that’s imperceptible to the written word. I believe the French call it “je ne sais quoi”. Succinctly put: I can’t wait to work with Carla again.”
—Cady M. [Writer]
“My experience with Carla was very profound. For all the different services I have had in my life as a practitioner her method opened a whole new door I needed to explore to continue my emotional healing and growth.”

—Angela L.. [Licensed Acupuncturist]
