My ideal client is an individual that comes here with the understanding that simply talking about what is bothering them is not the end, but the beginning. After this, the real work begins. They are ready to listen and absorb. This client is ready to learn coping strategies that can assist them with managing their emotions even after our clinical relationship has ended. This client is not looking for a buttoned up and stuffy environment. They come with the knowledge that they will be in a welcoming, relaxed, and humor-filled environment. My job is to support, challenge, and empower you to help yourself move forward.

Anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship problems, as well as family or child behavior and developmental issues can be understood and improved to change your life for a much better future.
As a licensed counselor I work with individuals, couples and families who have experienced trauma, including shame; as well as clients with anxiety, depression and addictions. I also specialize in working with children who have autism, anxiety, ADHD and sensory processing issues, as well as with their family members. I work with clients to help heal their attachment wounds and to integrate their past traumas so they no longer act as triggers in their lives. Working with couples and families to assist them in understanding their triggers and emotions and in communicating in a validating and empathic way is my strength.

Whether I am working with a small child or an adult, I believe that the healing process is a journey of returning home to the authentic self with the therapeutic relationship as a vehicle supporting the exploration. My name is Kayla and I hope to walk along with you on this path, offering compassion, co-regulation, and some neuroscience education along the way. When we can lean into the understanding of our own neurobiology and how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors have come to be, we may also begin to explore where we may have gotten stuck and how we can have a renewed access to the wisdom and assets that our bodies possess.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
