You may look like you’re managing life on the outside while inside feeling overwhelmed, tense, or disconnected. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, and depression that continue to impact how they feel, think, and relate to others. Together, we focus on understanding what your system has been carrying and gently processing it in a way that feels steady and manageable, so you can begin to feel more grounded, clear, and connected in your daily life.

Hi, I’m Kayla, I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and I work to support autistic adults and other neurodivergent experiences. I’ve spent a big part of my career in the disability sector, especially supporting autistic folks. I’ve worn a lot of different hats along the way and these precious experiences are what shape and inspire my work as a counsellor today.

You grew up with the “typical Asian parents” who were emotionally unavailable. Love and emotions were rarely expressed, leaving you unsure whether you were truly seen, understood, or valued. Or you’ve been in relationships that break you. You become hyper aware of anything that signals a threat to the relationship. When you try to express how you feel, nothing seems to change and you’re left feeling even more afraid and helpless. You’re not broken nor a bad person. And you should not handle this all by yourself. I’m here to help.

My aim in psychotherapy is to be trustworthy, to pay deep attention to whatever you are bringing to talk about, and to have ideas and strategies to offer that can help. My goal is to work alongside of you to help you figure out the problems you are currently facing, and in the process help you to learn more about trusting yourself so that you can live out what you value, and find greater happiness.. Psychotherapy, for me, is a process where a person can take the time to talk through current problems, and in the process, explore your deep motivations, fears, and dreams, and your relationship with others and the world.

Like many people, I’ve faced confusion, setbacks, and even thought about giving up. I’ve struggled with anxiety, depression, cross-cultural challenges, and relationship pain.
While I’m a therapist today, I’ve also been a client—uncertain and worried when first seeking help. Through years of counselling, I’ve gained self-understanding, learned to embrace who I am, and developed the ability to care for my feelings and needs. Though external pressures exist, I’ve learned to listen to my inner voice and respond to it rather than react.
