I’m Kayla, a passionate Licensed Social Worker (LSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, support, and practical tools for growth. I understand that seeking therapy can feel intimidating, and my goal is to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable being yourself. I believe that every person has unique strengths and resilience, and I strive to help clients recognize those strengths while working through difficulties that may be impacting their daily lives.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, emotional regulation difficulties, life transitions, relationship concerns, and general life stressors. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and tailored to each client's individual needs.
I believe that healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, but you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
