Circumstances, life crisis, disability and past trauma can block our ability to achieve our goals and dreams. I am passionate about helping people overcome obstacles that are affecting their ability to live a fulfilling, purposeful and happy life. We all have dreams and a vision of what we want our life to look like. Whatever issue brings you to therapy, I am excited to help and guide you through the process of revealing those blocks, resolving unproductive behaviors, and developing healthy coping skills so you can live the life you imagine.

Braving the unsteady waters of healing is an act of self-love. I believe in the transformative power of turning our attention inward to shed light on all parts of self—the beautiful, the “ugly,” the shameful, the resilient. From my experience as both a therapist and a fellow human on this path, I have witnessed the profound power of allowing yourself to be seen, truly seen, in the presence of another. It is my commitment to work together to create an environment where you feel safe, honored, and sacred. This is where our “heart-work” begins.

I am committed to use my extensive experience and the effective skills I have developed throughout my professional career in mental health to help you feel better in a short time. I have a deep understanding of why we end up suffering or are stuck and unable to get to that state of well-being we all deserve and are capable of achieving. Sometimes one just needs a little help from an expert. At a minimum, my aim is that you leave having more insight into what the problem is and how to resolve it. We can do the rest together or you can try on your own. I am confident that you will not regret the experience.

I believe that reaching out for help is one of the bravest steps in your healing and I am honored and passionate to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families; aiding you as you strive towards healing the emotional wounds you carry. I work to create a client-centered space in which my clients feel respected and safe to be vulnerable - to give a voice to and explore your painful, broken attachments and fears. I often utilize the Enneagram, a self awareness tool, alongside EFT to aid my clients in becoming more aware of what’s occurring internally and relationally.

I specialize in chronic health conditions and trauma, which I understand first hand. Chronic medical conditions (i.e. dysautonomia POTS, EDS, Lyme disease, Bartonella, IBS, fibro, fatigue CFS, Hashimoto’s, mast cell MCAS, sickle cell disease, mold illness CIRS, etc.) often come with significant challenges, like fear, anxiety, grief, medical PTSD, and may interfere with relationships and daily function. I utilize various holistic evidence-based treatment modalities and practice-based evidence, contingent on each person’s needs and goals, with an added focus on mindfulness techniques, positive psychology, and strengths-based therapy.

Having family troubles? Family issues can lead to negative consequences like depression, relationship issues, anxiety, and even physical illness. If it feels like you’re alone in dealing with your family’s challenges, there is good news...You and your family don't have to feel the way you do forever. I know that family can be a source of stress and anxiety, but there are ways to help manage it. I help families effectively manage their marriage, parent-kid relationships, extended families, ADHD, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and more.

Here is what I believe: Everyone needs an objective person to help support and guide them through life’s challenges, transitions and hurdles. I believe the most important aspect of therapy is a trusting, nonjudgmental, and compassionate relationship with your therapist; therapy should feel safe, and provide you relief. I enjoy working with people from different background to help them discover their true self and overcoming the obstacles that may obscure their journey to happiness and self-fulfillment. I utilize humanistic mindful approaches to support wellness.

"There is no normal life that is free of pain. It's the very wrestling with our problems that can be the IMPETUS for our growth." (Mister Rogers).

Hi, my name is Kayla and my hope is to continue to support individuals in navigating the effects of daily stress and anxiety to more complex issues of depression and post traumatic stress disorder. Whether it's learning to understand our own mental health or just gain a better understanding of our own thoughts and feelings, I believe that each of us hold the ability to heal, and in doing so, find what helps us thrive. My approach to each session is to provide a safe space for clients to be at ease in the present and gain clarity while exploring, challenging and healing core wounds, values and behaviors.

Hello! I'm Jessie! I used to think therapy was all about sitting in a room with a stranger asking, “How do you feel?” and having them nod at every response. I couldn't have been more wrong. I desire to create a space that is safe yet challenging, gentle yet dynamic, and structured yet flexible. I aim to tailor each session to your individual needs as a client. I love helping people with conflict resolution, communication, boundaries, mindfulness, depression, and anxiety.
