Self-Care Isn’t Selfish—It’s Your Starting Point.

At Choose You Therapy, we normalize putting yourself first—because your healing matters. Too often, we’re taught that self-care is indulgent or that prioritizing our own needs must come last. But healing starts the moment you give yourself permission to be your own priority.

Healing Rooted in Lived Experience, Culture, & Wholeness

Carla Luna

LICSW (MA) + LCSW (IL)

Welcome! I’m Carla, a therapist, mother, grandmother and cancer survivor whose healing journey began in 2010 after facing pancreatic cancer. That life-changing experience forced me to slow down and prioritize my own physical and emotional well-being—something I hadn’t done in years as a busy mom of two.

With a degree in Nutrition and a passion for holistic wellness, I began integrating mind-body-spirit healing into my personal recovery and eventually into my practice. I created Choose You Therapy to offer clients what I wish I had back then: care that sees every layer of who you are—emotional, physical, energetic, and spiritual.

As a Latina, I also understand the cultural barriers many face when seeking therapy. Clients often tell me how hard it was to find someone who "gets it." I’m proud to offer a safe, culturally aware space where you can begin healing without having to explain your identity.

Testimonials

  • “I’ve been working with Carla for the past five years, and I truly don’t know where I’d be without her guidance. Through some of the most transformative and challenging seasons of my life, she’s been a steady, supportive presence. She’s helped me navigate boundaries in relationships, especially with my mom, and find clarity and confidence in my own journey through motherhood. Her holistic approach, caring not just for my emotional well-being but also encouraging me to prioritize my physical health, has made a lasting impact. I’m incredibly grateful for her compassion, insight, and unwavering support. I’m forever grateful!”

  • “I have been with Carla off/on since 2020. I have changed my insurance just to work with her. Her attention to detail, input and her sense of humor has made a great impact on my mental health and healing.”

  • "I have worked with Carla for several years, she genuinely cares about her clients. She is knowledgeable, honest, understanding and down to earth."

  • "I have struggled with my mental health most of my life. Recently I suffered severe depression over a life event, without Carla's guidance, and compassion I am not sure if I would have recovered as much as I have, I will alway be grateful that I have had her in my life."

  • "After brain surgery and over a year in rehab, I met Carla—and immediately felt seen. I was angry, depressed, and lost. She listened, guided, and helped me feel less alone. Now I’m living on my own, calmer, more centered, and still supported by our sessions. She’s the best counselor I’ve ever had."
