Hola/Hello! My name is Karla (She/Her/Ella) and I serve as the Manager for Denver Mental Wellness Initiatives, dedicated to bridging mental health resources and connections to historically underserved communities. I also assist in coordinating our Client Support Line to ensure that anyone seeking counseling services is connected with one of our phenomenal Mental Wellness Program volunteer counselors.
Fluent in Spanish and English, I am committed to forging pathways for Spanish speakers and the Latine community as well as other communities of color. With a background in providing mental health support for individuals in crisis and adolescents involved with the justice system. I also hold a master’s degree in forensic psychology from the University of Denver and am working towards hours for licensure.
In my leisure time, I enjoy reading, taking road trips, and cherishing moments with loved ones. Together, I know that we can cultivate supportive, interconnected communities where mental wellness is prioritized and the foundation of all that we do.
