Carlita’s Way is a living body of writing guided by my desire to articulate the human experience and to make sense of my own changing sense of self in ways that invite recognition and understanding. The writing is shaped through lived experience, therapeutic practice, and close attention to how things come to make sense over time.

​

Within Carlita’s Way, there are different ways to stay connected to this work.  Much of it is shared freely through the public blog, where reflections appear across a range of columns. Now In Session is most closely tied to my work as a therapist and often draws from the themes, patterns, and questions that arise in clinical practice. Other columns, including MSing the Point, My Autacity, Modern-Day Moments, and Night School Notes, are more personal in nature, offering reflections that grow out of my own lived experience and may, at times, carry therapeutic resonance.

​

Some reflections are published within Carlita’s Way of Life, a paid subscription for writing that is more tied to my personal process, a behind-the-scenes space to witness how I make sense of my own lived experiences through loss, transition, and revision. These pieces may still belong to familiar columns, but they are shared privately through the subscription, with full access available only to subscribers. Subscribers receive one new written reflection each month and have ongoing access to the complete collection of subscriber-only writing.

However you choose to stay connected to the writing, it is here to keep you company as you make sense of your own experience. Begin wherever feels right for you.
