Healing from past traumatic experiences ( childhood, relational, medical, or single-event trauma), managing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression, reducing hypervigilance, flashbacks, and intrusive thoughts, building healthier relationships and trust after trauma, restoring a sense of safety, stability, and self-worth.
Hi, I'm Kaila and I am so grateful you are here; you might feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you: perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, chronic self-doubt, relationship struggles, or difficulty processing past trauma. Often, you’ve been strong for too long and are ready to let someone else support you. You want clarity, connection, and peace of mind. You may crave healthier boundaries, deeper relationships, or simply a break from the constant pressure to be "on". What you want, at the heart of it, is to feel safe being who you are, truly.

Hi there! I’m a licensed therapist with a Master’s in Social Work and seven years of experience supporting adolescents and young adults as they navigate life transitions, identity development, and relationships. I believe our early relational experiences shape our core beliefs, emotional patterns, and ways of connecting with others. When these experiences involve inconsistency, disconnection, or harm -they can create internalized narratives that contribute to anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck. My work is grounded in attachment-based theory and trauma-informed care, while also drawing from psychodynamic and somatic approaches.

It’s not always easy to know when to reach out, especially if your child isn’t asking for help.
From the outside, your teen or young adult might look “fine,” but you’re noticing changes—more withdrawal, mood swings, anxiety, or stress that doesn’t seem to let up. Maybe conversations feel harder lately, or you’re not sure how to help without things turning into conflict. You want to support them, but it’s not always clear what they need. I work primarily with teens and young adults, creating a space where they can feel comfortable opening up at their own pace. I also understand how important it is to keep parents involved in a supportive, respectful way.
