Starting therapy can be overwhelming- I get it! It’s important to me that my practice is a safe and inviting space, trauma informed, and free of judgment. I support children, teens, adults and couples. I am also a member of our multidisciplinary autism assessment team and value providing a neuro affirming and sensory friendly space for folks of all ages. While I am dedicated to continuous education and professional development I love learning from my clients and feel it is such a privilege to hold space and explore their unique challenges and experiences. Whatever your struggle is, you don’t have to be alone.

Hi, I’m Kayla – a Canadian Certified Counsellor, Mama of two, and birth trauma survivor in St. John’s, Newfoundland. In 2021, I experienced a traumatic miscarriage, and in 2022, I narrowly escaped a stillbirth due to a fetal-maternal hemorrhage. These experiences, both deeply personal and transformative, have shaped my passion for supporting others through their own perinatal journeys. As a therapist and a Mama, I combine my professional training with lived experience to offer compassionate, personalized support for those navigating infertility, loss, pregnancy, early parenthood, and more.

In developing a safe and respectful environment, I strive to help clients feel comfortable to start the journey of recovery from addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and/or anger. I understand the journey of recovery from substance use disorders is not easy but I am here to support clients towards their goals. I also understand life transitions of individuals, especially athletes and how mental health is a large component of an athlete's identity.

Healing is not just about mending what feels fragmented—it’s about rediscovering the wholeness that has always existed within you. True transformation happens when we learn to listen to the wisdom of mind and body, recognizing how our nervous system holds onto past experiences and how, with care and curiosity, we can restore a sense of balance and inner calm. Therapy offers the space to gently explore the patterns that have shaped us, to tend to the parts of ourselves that feel stuck or unheard, and to move toward greater integration and wholeness. It’s about working through challenges and creating a new relationship with yourself.
