Choosing wholeness takes courage. I am Carlete, an LPC-S and Trained Compassion Fatigue Professional with over 20 years of experience helping people navigate the intersection of life’s challenges and professional demands. My practice, CSM Counseling, is built on the philosophy of "empowering those who empower others." I offer a grounded, supportive space to talk through the complexities of your life. With a background that spans education, healthcare, and the private sector, I provide a unique dual-lens approach—combining clinical empathy with a strategic understanding of the systems we operate in. Whether you are navigating burnout or seeking a "next chapter" of personal growth, I am here to help you enhance your clarity and confidence. Let’s work together to put the pieces back together in a way that feels right for you.
