Getting to know Kamilya Lapp-Kamara
This is a space where experiences are shared and insight unfolds. I am here to support your growth, through reflection utilizing evidence-based techniques—allowing each session to feel both grounded and gracefully expansive. Honoring your unique story of who you are and what brings you in the therapeutic space. Progress is not rushed as growth is gradual, needing strong roots, groundedness and sunshine to thrive.
My therapeutic approach is tailored to each client's unique goals and draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a strengths-based perspective, Solution-Focused Therapy, Family Systems Theory, and Psychodynamic Therapy. Together, we will identify patterns, build practical coping skills, and develop greater insight to support lasting growth and positive change.
Over the past 10 years, I have had experience working in outpatient mental health agencies, schools, community-based organizations, health clinics, and private practice settings. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, family conflict, and relationship challenges.
I believe one of the most important aspects of therapy is building a trusting, authentic relationship where clients feel safe, heard, and supported. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you gain insight, build resilience, and move toward the life you envision. It is truly a privilege to witness clients experience healing, renewed hope, and greater peace as they work toward their goals.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am the founder and psychotherapist of Rooted in Kindness Counseling. I am a biracial, daughter of an immigrant, cis-gender women and use she/her pronouns. Supporting others as they discover their strengths, navigate life’s challenges, and create meaningful change has always been a passion of mine. I believe that we each have the capacity for growth, healing, and self-discovery, and I feel honored to walk alongside clients as they find their own path forward.
