Welcome to Counseling with Kayla PLLC, a compassionate therapeutic space that helps you navigate personal and social complexities, heal from burnout, and build a meaningful life. With a background in early childhood education, psychology, and human development, I have a deep understanding and respect for our innate human capacity to grow when given a safe space and the right tools. Located in the West End of Winston-Salem, NC, and providing secure online therapy across North Carolina, I provide specialized care for high performers experiencing severe burnout, individuals navigating difficult life transitions, and individuals managing anxiety, ADHD, and OCD. I also offer a safe, confidential space for those navigating complex or potentially harmful relationships, helping you find clarity and take your next steps toward safety and stability. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. For those navigating OCD, I am trained and experienced in the gold-standard treatment of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). For my ADHD, neurodivergent clients, we work together to develop impactful skills and meaningful motivators that actually work for your specific brain. I also practice trauma-informed ACT, CBT, and somatic practices for anyone navigating the many challenging situations life brings and for those working through anxiety, depression, or a challenging relationship that feels too scary to leave. If you're tired of cookie-cutter coping skills that don't fit your life, or exhausted from being told you're so "self-aware" without being shown what to do with that awareness, I get it, and I'm glad you landed here.
