About Kathryn Lay
Kathryn Lay is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. Her background includes working as a mental health therapist in school settings, where she developed a strong understanding of how stress, trauma, and emotional struggles impact daily functioning across different stages of life. She specializes in working with teens and adults, helping clients navigate concerns such as trauma, anxiety, stress, and depression. She is trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and integrates this and other evidence-based approaches to support healing and meaningful change. Her approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. She believes in meeting clients where they are, honoring each person’s unique experiences, and creating a safe, respectful space where growth can occur at a comfortable pace. She views therapy not as a process of “fixing,” but as an opportunity for clients to reconnect with their strengths, build insight, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence. Whether a client is feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply seeking support, Kathryn is committed to walking alongside them with sensitivity, respect, and care.
