Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), positive psychology, and practical coping strategies, Carla helps clients develop healthier thought patterns, strengthen boundaries, improve emotional wellness, build self-worth, and navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience and confidence. At MindShift Counseling Oasis, LLC, Carla believes that when your mindset shifts, everything else can too. Beyond her clinical training, Carla’s background in ministry, leadership, music, and community engagement has deepened her ability to connect compassionately with clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. For more than 30 years, she has provided empathetic support and compassionate listening to individuals facing emotional and personal hardships. In recent years, she has expanded those natural gifts through formal counseling education, clinical training, and hands-on therapeutic experience. “My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and equipped with the tools needed to create lasting change.” – Carla McCullough, RMHCI
