Hi, I am Carmen Malaver. I founded Inward Wholeness Counseling, Inc., to provide a warm and compassionate space for individuals whose lives appear complete from the outside, but who are running on fumes internally. I know how isolating it is to be the person everyone relies on, while having no safe place to fall yourself.

My journey to becoming a therapist was fueled by my desire to establish a safe place where people could find solace. I blend clinical expertise with genuine warmth. In our sessions, you won't need to impress anyone, hide your exhaustion, or optimize your healing process. You can be yourself.

My approach is warm, empowering, and trauma-informed, grounded in evidence-based practices that help you create real, lasting change. I specialize in supporting adults navigating depression, anxiety, life stress, substance use, and trauma. I’m here to support you as you reconnect with your authentic self and learn tools to strengthen your emotional and mental well-being.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, watching movies, and reading.
