I offer somatic expressive arts therapy as an imaginative and experiential way of "being-with" in a therapeutic relationship.
Hi there! I'm Kayla. I'm a psychotherapist who helps folks transform trauma and deepen experiences of presence and connection. My practice uses an experiential approach drawn from somatic, expressive arts, and relational psychotherapies. I am passionate about this work because I believe fully in our embodied potential for reshaping trauma through creative connection. Within my own life, and throughout my career I have witnessed how attending to our bodies through the arts can open up space for co-creating safe-enough and vibrant relationships.

People often turn to therapy when they notice the same painful patterns repeating, but feel helpless to make things better. Maybe you're finding yourself struggling in your relationships, or you're not happy with your current situation. While a painful time can lead you to seek therapy, starting therapy can be a really positive step. It usually means that you believe things can be better, and that you have some hope for change. If you’re feeling depressed, overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in a bad situation, or even just curious about your life or relationship choices, therapy can help.

I believe in building an authentic therapeutic relationship from which we address problems and find creative solutions.
Although no topics are off limits, many people see me for problems in relationship, grief and loss, personal growth and unresolved childhood and family issues. Often clients seek help when they are at a cross roads in their lives and need support and guidance on how to move through problems, overcome obstacles, and move in a direction that is in line with their own life compass.

While it is important to know what credentials a therapist has, in the end it is about the right fit since the therapeutic relationship has to be built on trust and security.

Whatever you may be experiencing, we will sit together in a comfortable office and begin to unravel the issues you want to focus on, in a non-judgemental and gentle environment.
