The world is a complicated place. And sometimes the best way to make sense of it all is to sit down with someone and talk it out. When we begin to speak freely about ourselves, we gain not only the opportunity to be heard and understood- We begin to map the richly resourced, vast, and sometimes difficult terrain of our inner lives. In my experience, the best kind of conversation - the kind that heals, energizes & changes lives - is thoughtfully paced and as free as possible from the pressures and expedience that can sometimes rule our daily lives.

Do you or someone you love feel an overwhelming sense of pressure in your life, but you aren’t sure why? Are you dealing with anxiety, heavy stress, or maybe you just had your first panic attack.

My name is Kayla, and I found my passion for therapy after going through my own personal experiences with anxiety and trauma. I enjoy working with teens, adolescents, and adults!

Counseling can help develop coping skills to better manage emotions of depression, anxiety, grief or stress; to improve communication between loved ones; and support individuals adjusting to major life transitions.
I spent four years in college counseling centers, and I love working with young adults as they make major career/relationship choices. I'm also passionate about helping foster, adoptive, and multiracial families build a home environment of safety through a trauma-informed lens, and I often work with women's issues including infertility and pregnancy.

Life is sometimes difficult and emotions feel overwhelming. At times, it's as though the rug has been pulled out from underneath us.

Whatever it is that has lead you here, I'm glad you are reaching out. I hope to provide a space to you that honors your story, facilitates personal growth and allows you to be authentic. I believe that each of us deserve to find healing and that includes you.

I specialize in perinatal mental health, supporting individuals through pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, loss, birth trauma, and the transition into parenthood.
You can love your baby and still struggle with becoming a parent. Pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, birth trauma, and the transition into parenthood can bring emotions no one prepared you for. You may feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, guilty, resentful, or simply not like yourself. I specialize in perinatal mental health and provide a space where you can say the things you may be afraid to say out loud. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re experiencing, build practical tools, and help you feel more like yourself again—without expecting you to be the “perfect” parent.

If you’re feeling like you’re falling behind while everyone else seems to have it together, you’re not alone. Many of the adults I work with carry a loud inner critic, chronic anxiety, or a sense of exhaustion that makes even the simplest parts of life feel heavy. I believe deeply that none of us are meant to navigate these experiences in isolation. My role is to offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, make sense of what’s happening inside you, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been overshadowed by stress or survival mode.

Welcome! I am a trauma-informed, liberation-oriented art therapist offering virtual therapy for adults and teens in Georgia. I take a systems-based approach to mental health, considering the mind-body connection, the health of relationships, and the impacts of systemic oppression. I advocate for collective liberation as a key aspect of trauma healing and prioritize creating an affirming and accessible space for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent, and disabled or chronically ill folks. As an art therapist, I believe that creating art can help to express emotions, regulate the nervous system, and communicate with the self and others.

You are carrying the weight of the world, trying to hold everything together while feeling like you’re failing at being a good enough parent, partner, or friend. You wake up already overwhelmed. You push yourself through the day, constantly worried that everyone will see how exhausted and disconnected you really feel.
You don’t want to burden the people you love, so you hold it all in. But the past keeps showing up — those old wounds and messages that whisper you weren’t good enough, that you should have done more, been more. Your mind races, replaying every mistake, and you don't know how to make it stop.
