Karlie Oldham, ACU Intern Supervised by Bethany Luna, LMFT-S

Hi, I’m Karlie. I’m a Marriage & Family Therapist Graduate Intern from Abilene Christian University, and I work from a systems perspective because I believe we all grow, struggle, and heal in the context of our relationships and environments. I am passionate about walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they move through challenges, transitions, and patterns that no longer serve them.

My work includes helping clients improve communication, navigate conflict, strengthen attachment, shift unhelpful family dynamics, and build skills that support healthier connection. I have a heart for single parents—helping them find steadiness, support, and practical tools—and for clients healing from trauma, offering a grounded, compassionate space to rebuild safety and resilience.

Whether supporting partners through relational strain, guiding families toward more effective interaction, or helping individuals understand how their broader system shapes their wellbeing, I want to offer a space for safety of expression. I also enjoy working with college-aged adults who are figuring out identity, independence, stress, and the pressure of “getting it right.”

My hope is to offer a space that feels steady, warm, and collaborative, where you can strengthen your relationships, break old cycles, build resilience, and move toward the version of yourself you want to become.

Karlie is accepting new clients immediately on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursdays.

Coaching Versus Therapy

 

These are two VERY different experiences.  You get to choose what serves you best in your life today.

As a therapist, Bethany listens and uses evidence-based approaches that she's learned in school and in trainings.  It's such valuable work.  We dive deep in the trauma and the pain of the past, and we explore different ways to frame and shape those experiences.  As a therapy client, you will gain psycho-education and knowledge of current research-based practices and be challenged to implement changes in your thoughts, feelings and actions.

As a coach, Bethany is a mirror: reflecting and channeling.  She is a vessel and uses her energetic responses and embodied experiences to support you.  As a coaching client, we focus on upleveling your experience through energetic, embodied practices, accessing your consciousness through accessing the collective healing of the Universe.

Bethany is the same person, but these are two VERY different healing experiences she uses to support you.  As a therapist, Bethany does not discuss religion or spirituality without prompting; however, as a coach, our entire work is focused on accessing the energies of the Universe and ourselves.

Artistic Truths

 

The logo of Phoenix Moon Healing is in the shape of a moon to signify our connection to the earth and our spirit animals.  It is a call to remember to access the parts of us that the world has quieted with its structure, rules and bullshit.  A call to howl at the moon and access our aligned self that is raw and vulnerable, to bring the yin and the yang of the feminine and masculine energies.  The phoenix signifies our constant evolution, becoming and unbecoming, all the same and all different.  The phoenix is our steady energetic signature of strength as we activate and access our highest self.
