My name is Carla Ardito, and I have been a teacher for over 30 years. This 12 week course is designed to offer true insight and provide you with practical tools to continue growing long after our time together.
Emotions shape our lives on both psychological and physical levels. When we learn to understand and work with pure emotion, we reclaim our power as human beings. Healing involves restoring our ability to fully access and process our emotions. When long-blocked emotions are released, we experience a profound sense of calm, clarity, and wisdom. The internal conflicts that once kept us stuck dissolve, and the tension that held those suppressed emotions begins to unravel. As this tension fades, we become more attuned to our thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. We start to see our interactions with greater clarity and recognize the old, false narratives that once governed our inner dialogue. This newfound awareness fosters both inner peace and a deeper presence in our daily lives. When the body is free from emotional tension, all its systems benefit. However, healing cannot be achieved through intellectual reasoning alone. Analysis and discussion are valuable but insufficient. True and lasting change requires us to access and release what lies buried beneath the surface. This workshop will strike a balance between the intellectual and emotional aspects of healing, offering a safe space to explore deeply. Together, through our questioning and discontent, we will uncover the obstacles that stand in our way and clear the path to genuine transformation.
So let’s start by looking at some of the big questions that arise in life. First our sense of purpose.
- Am I truly fulfilled?
- Is it time to revive old dreams or find new ones?
- Have I found my purpose—or done enough to reach my goals?
- Why do I feel stuck, uncertain, or like something is missing?
In life there are always periods where we start reassessing our relationships and our health.
- You may be seeking a partner or a deeper connection with your present partner.
- Wanting to renew or repair the connection you have with an aging parent? Or you may want to be at peace with the status of that relationship.
- Or wanting to reduce stress and take better care of your health.
The good news is that all of these questions and worries are designed to help you live a better life. And if you do the work, this can be the time of life when you become truly fulfilled and resilient. The challenges you face and overcome will result in a foundation of strength—one that guarantees that you’ll be ok no matter what life throws at you.
I’ve spent decades studying and developing a structured way to help you navigate this journey so that you develop skills that will last a lifetime.
Here’s what is included in the program:
- Understanding Inner Conflicts –Why they keep you stuck and learning the techniques necessary to resolve them.
- Emotional Mastery –Achieving the sensitivity necessary to distinguish between limiting feelings (like frustration) and pure emotions (like anger), and how to use pure emotions to gain mental clarity and enhance physical health
- Practical Tools for Change. -Exercises to access, process, and harness the power of emotions for effective conflict resolution. Understanding our emotions and putting the power of that understanding to use as we work towards the attainment of our goals.
So if you’re ready to do the work—to break free from feeling stuck… If you’re ready to step out of your comfort zone and into the most powerful chapter of your life… Let’s get to work..

Here is what people are saying about Carla’s work.
When I first met Carla, I had only a vague understanding of what healing truly meant. Now, I can confidently say I’m well on my way, thanks to her. She is the most extraordinary healing guide I’ve ever encountered. Carla’s wisdom and methods are not just transformative in the moment—they are tools that stay with you for a lifetime.
After working with Carla I noticed some dramatic changes in my relationship with my often-times volatile teen. In the past, when my son would get angry or upset, inevitably I would get sucked in and we’d start yelling at each other, neither resolving the issue nor helping him out. I’d end up feeling like I’d failed (again) as a parent. I was completely lost. It wasn’t until my session, when I began to resolve some conflicts from my own childhood, that I realized why I was so easily emotionally hijacked. The very next time this dynamic occurred with my son, I knew there had been a shift in me. I did not engage with him, nor did I feel angry at his behavior. I didn’t TRY not to react either. Rather, I stayed calm because that is how my body felt. It wasn’t a struggle for me, it happened naturally. Never in my 13 years of parenting have I felt this way! Also I noticed a change in the way I moved through my days. There was a freeness in the way I walked and felt. I don’t know how else to describe it other than to say it felt like blood was coursing through my veins as it should. No stagnant feeling at all! No tiredness, nor was I hyped up. It wasn’t a caffeine rush, but more a feeling of, “this is the way we are meant to live!” It was remarkable really. I can’t recommend her teaching enough. It has been life changing for me and I’m confident it will also be life changing for my children as well. And their children, and on and on…

In the few short months I have witnessed internal shifts at a gallop. The work untied so many mental and emotional knots with a kind of immediacy that no other therapy or mediation (or medication) I’ve experienced. I thought I was self-aware, knew where all my “issues” were but I realize now I’d never had this degree of clarity, nor the alternate internal script to make significant changes into the future. It isn’t comfortable, but the healing is more than effective, using all of the voices and stories and truths that have always been there, and letting them resonate; to either out their own exorcism, or settling in the gentle narrative of your life.

Working with Carla I have come to understand so many things about myself that I always questioned before. She was not afraid to challenge me and supported me in facing vulnerable moments and difficult memories. With her help I learned to speak up, trust myself, feel more present in my body, and make decisions that are in line with what I want.
I have worked with other therapists, but nothing has helped me heal and know who I am as much as I do now.

Through the work that Carla teaches, I was able to finally achieve awareness of the many subconscious factors driving unwanted behaviors, and in doing so, be finally freed from these patterns.
For example, I was raised by a father who used intimidation to parent. I had never intended to put the same pressures on my daughter that I had loathed as a child, yet I had no awareness of how much my father’s parenting infiltrated my psyche when I felt stressed. Carla helped me realize when this ‘subconscious father’ became present and with these realizations, I was able to talk to my daughter and apologize. Upon identifying this wasn’t the true ‘me’ I have been free from these subconscious compulsions and today my relationship with my daughter is trusting and safe.
Carla’s approach to therapy has worked to heal my core wounds, many of which I had spent my lifetime avoiding. I now feel I am very close to the true person I was meant to be– no longer reacting from the subtle characteristics of family dysfunction.
My years of talk therapy never allowed an understanding of the root causes. Today I have a compassionate understanding of myself, and I feel secure in giving this compassion to others.

I’ll never forget my first meeting with Carla. As soon as we began talking, an overwhelming flood of emotions took over, and tears poured out of me. I’m not someone who easily opens up, let alone becomes that vulnerable with a person I’ve just met. But there’s something about Carla—her presence, her wisdom—that bypassed my usual defenses. In that moment, I broke open, and she guided me through the pain with remarkable grace and compassion.
Carla gave me clear, reassuring directions on what to expect in the days ahead. Initially, I felt a bit exposed after sharing so much, but that feeling quickly faded. Carla followed up with me consistently, showing such care and attentiveness that I never felt alone in the process.

In the short but quick year and a half that I have been working with Carla , I can say my life has changed dramatically- personally and professionally!
I have allowed experiences and relationships that I never would have or was able to in the past. As a result I have the healthiest relationship I have ever had and separately I am embarking in a new career that I am so passionate about and feel so fortunate for.
Doors are opening up that never seemed to be there in the past and I am walking through them. I am feeling more alive and excited about my future than I have in my 49 years.

Is it too dramatic to say that working with Carla changed my life?
I had done a lot of work over the years, and every little bit helped, but working with Carla was like throwing the gauntlet down, in the most nurturing, safe way imaginable.
I was able to be brutally honest with myself and my history and the work that needed to be done. After only a few sessions, I felt a massive shift in my body.
Almost like I could feel the molecules rearranging themselves. My mind and body started working with me instead of against me as I’d felt so often in life.
So much growth and joy have entered my life following my time with Carla. She has the gift to facilitate and guide a person towards their deepest most powerful truth. I look forward to more time with her in the future.

Having known Carla both personally and professionally for almost 3 decades, I can attest to her commitment to personal growth, both for herself and others. I believe she was put on this earth to truly heal people at the deepest level. Through all her soul searching and education, Carla has found a proven method to do just that. I’ve been in traditional therapies several times during the course of my life, often for years at a time, but it wasn’t until doing Resolution Therapy with Carla that I finally felt a true shift both emotionally and physically. The past several years have been a time of enormous growth for me; professionally, creatively, in my marriage and in my role as a mother.
If you are looking for a way to finally reach your potential and live your life as it’s was meant to be lived; full of joy, sharing and knowing how to truly love, then look no further. The answer is here. And it’s simple, maybe not easy, but simple. Have courage and dive in. It will change your life and then you can really be there for others, which is why we are here, after all.

The work with Carla is intense and rapidly creates discovery and results. Carla’s expert instincts and knowledge have pushed me to understand answers to questions that haunted me for decades. My relationships are richer and my self awareness is more honest as a result in just a relatively short amount of time.

I found Carla’s work to touch upon a deep level of healing, and with that, uncovering a profound mystery. Her intimate and individual approach allowed me to become present in my own way and at my own time. She has a gift to see how the breath and the body hold particular patterns. I would recommend her work to anyone looking to study oneself more deeply.
