Hi, I'm Layla. I specialize in working with young adults and women who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety/ptsd/trauma and stressful life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients develop a strong sense of self…healing from the past, developing healthy relationships, and navigating change. I am a seasoned professional with over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field. My approach is person-centered and trauma-informed.

In addition to being a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am a Nervous System Regulation Practitioner, a Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, a Member of the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress, and I have advanced training in Perinatal Mental Health. Prior to opening my practice I worked as a School Psychologist and Educational Administrator.

I use empathy, compassion, and understanding to create a warm and welcoming environment. Sessions are sprinkled with humor, authenticity, and skillful self-disclosure to build a trustworthy therapeutic relationship.
