Kayla is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) passionate about supporting individuals navigating the challenges of everyday life—especially those in high-stress environments. She specializes in working with college students and frontline professionals, including EMTs, nurses, doctors, and mental health workers, who often shoulder significant responsibilities while putting others first.
With experience in inpatient care, school-based services, group homes, and telehealth, Kayla offers a well-rounded and practical perspective. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and IFS, her approach blends compassion, collaboration, and actionable coping tools. Clients often describe her style as a mix of warmth and directness—providing “tough love” in a supportive, grounded space.
Kayla helps clients manage stress, anxiety, and burnout, guiding them toward greater clarity, resilience, and ease in daily life. She believes therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. Every person brings a unique set of strengths, experiences, and challenges, and Kayla meets clients exactly where they are—creating a safe space to show up authentically, uncover what’s holding them back, and take meaningful steps toward change.
