# # # Embrace the Light This Winter: NeuroStar TMS is Here for You in Alaska

Alaska's winters bring breathtaking beauty—but we all know the flip side: endless darkness and biting cold that can weigh heavy on the heart.

No anesthesia, no downtime—just real relief so you can reclaim your joy, energy, and connections.

We're right here in your backyard, making hope accessible:
- **Ketchikan**: Coastal calm meets cutting-edge care.
- **Wasilla**: Warm welcomes in the heart of the Mat-Su Valley.
- **Eagle River & South Anchorage**: Convenient spots to brighten your Anchorage routine.

Don't let the dark days dim your spark. Call or text 907-696-0096 for a free consultation today and let's make life beautiful again—together. Visit www.glacieralaska.com to learn more and start your journey toward brighter tomorrows.

Meet Carlie Jaramillo, LCSW!

Carlie Jaramillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive experience providing compassionate, trauma-informed care to individuals across the lifespan—from children navigating early challenges to adults seeking renewal later in life. As a devoted mother of three and a resilient military spouse, Carlie brings a deeply personal understanding of life's transitions, stresses, and triumphs to her practice, fostering genuine empathy and connection with her clients.

Carlie's therapeutic approach is rooted in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where healing and growth can flourish. She skillfully integrates person-centered therapy to honor each client's inherent strengths, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reframe unhelpful patterns, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to build emotional regulation and mindfulness skills. Above all, she tailors her interventions to align with each person's unique needs, goals, and cultural context, ensuring therapy feels collaborative and empowering rather than prescriptive.

Her clinical expertise spans a wide range of concerns, including life stressors such as relationship dynamics and career shifts, as well as deeper issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Whether helping someone process a painful past or develop strategies for present-day resilience, Carlie equips her clients with practical tools—like coping techniques and boundary-setting exercises—alongside profound emotional insight. Her ultimate commitment is to guide individuals toward lasting well-being, where they not only survive challenges but thrive with renewed purpose and self-compassion.

Having lived in Alaska alongside her military spouse, Carlie has a profound understanding of the unique challenges and rhythms of life in remote, rugged environments—from seasonal affective disorder to the isolation of long winters. Now stationed in Colorado, she continues to serve clients nationwide, including those connected to Alaskan communities, through accessible telehealth options.

Outside of her professional life, Carlie cherishes family adventures, quiet hikes with her kids, and the ever-present lessons in adaptability from her military journey. She is currently accepting new patients via telehealth appointments, with availability in late afternoons and early evenings, and accepts TriWest, VA, Medicaid, EBMS, GEHA, Aetna, Premera, and MODA. Reach her for consultations by phone/text at 907-696-0096.
