Meet Kayla

Hi, I’m Kayla! I am a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor. I support adolescents and adults in navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, and relational patterns. Together we work to strengthen awareness, safety, and connection with yourself and others. 

My approach to therapy is grounded in somatic and relational frameworks. I integrate somatic-based practices to support awareness of the body and nervous system, helping clients gently process stress and emotional overwhelm. Together we work to reclaim your sense of agency and choice through regulation, insight and mindful practice. Through a relational lens, we explore how relationships shape emotional experiences, develop relational patterns, and impact ways of connecting. The therapeutic relationship itself becomes a meaningful space for healing - offering safety, attunement, and the opportunity to build connection differently! 

I strive to create a therapeutic space rooted in safety, compassion and authenticity- where you feel seen, heard, and able to fully be yourself. I believe that the best therapeutic work happens through felt safety and genuine connection. It is a privilege to walk alongside you, supporting you in cultivating resilience, agency, and greater alignment between body and mind! 

Kayla sees clients 14 years and older
