I have grown so much during our visits. She intuits so many things and has helped me to see different perspectives. Kayla has helped me through some very difficult trials this past year including the death of my mom, a son that failed to launch and issues with our blended family. It has been a year of challenges but huge growth. I am better than I have been for years! Thank you Kayla!

More about Kayla
- 14 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am a trained clinical therapist who brings 14 years of experience working with children, adolescents, couples and families. I have experience working with with adjustment disruption, parenting difficulties, relational concerns, and individual issues. During my time as a therapist, I have collected many rich experiences along the way. I find the therapeutic relationship to be a powerful dyad where change and healing abound.
I approach therapy as a relational experience. My style is engaging, eclectic, conversational and goal-oriented. I value the whole person and believe that we all experience healing within a holistic context. My goal for therapy is to create an environment where those I have the privilege of working with experience a space where they can be their true selves and be met with compassion, understanding and gentle exposure to new and/or existing truths.
The journey of therapy is one that I honor and I look forward to becoming a sojourner with you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Kayla has helped me grow so much! I have had to tackle some really hard things. She gives me support and encouragement to keep taking one step at a time and one day at a time. I am very thankful.
Mrs. Kayla is a true gift from God! I marvel at how the Lord uses her to effectively communicate and process the situation in words that confirm as if she were in the situation herself. It's so beautiful and a breath of fresh air. As my first time seeking therapy, I didn't believe she'd understand or be able to give advice for my specific situation, but it really wasn't about that. I enjoy being able to express my thoughts without judgement and receiving support in a way that my friends and family haven't been able to. For the first time I understood that just has God gifts the hands of a doctor, or an artist, he gifted the mind of a therapist and they are needed! I'm so thankful to God for orchestrating a perfect fit for me and my situation. I am thankful that while she was a blessing to me, I had moments that inspired her!
I have enjoyed being with my therapist! Kayla is wonderful and her insights are amazing. She tells me the things I really need to hear and I have grown so much in the time we have been meeting. I am so thankful that she is my therapist!
Kayla is amazing! She gives me great advice and things to incorporate into my life that really works!!!! She is kind, patient and caring! I love that she holds me accountable! She helps me to grow beyond my wildest dreams. I am becoming a happier and much better person from the person I was a year ago!! Thank you Kayla! You have made this journey a wonderful exploration and my growth is exciting!
Kayla is a wonderful therapist. I have learned so much and continue to learn on each and every call
I appreciate Kayla more than words can expressed. I have grown so much! She challenges me, listens to me, shares valuable and priceless insights with me! I love our "light bulb" moments! It has been one difficult but wonderful learning experience after another. I have learned so much about me and my family dynamics that has brought me to this point. Most important she has taught me to care for myself, give myself credit for my achievements and to love myself as much as I have loved and given to others! I look forward to continuing our journey and growing even more. Thank you Kayla for helping me to become a better version of me. I love the upgrade!! I am becoming happy despite this difficult time in my life! Thank you for helping me transition from the loss of mom and the growth of my adult son! So many challenges! I have gone from overwhelmed to actually feeling joy! God bless you, you were an answer to prayer!
In a few sessions, Kayla has turned my life around. She was there during a recent crises and I will always be thankful that she cared and followed up. Her advice about my son has worked!!!! Her advice and expertise not only changed my life it has changed the dynamic with our adult son! Thank you, so much Kayla.
