Getting to know Kayla Acevedo

I am a art therapist and psychotherapist who works with children, teens, and adults seeking a more expressive and creative approach to therapy. I support clients navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, neurodivergence, LGBTQ+ concerns, identity exploration, creative blocks, divorce, and emotional regulation barriers through a blend of art therapy and talk therapy. Art therapy can be especially helpful if you feel stuck in traditional talk therapy, struggle to put emotions into words, think visually, or want a gentler way to explore your inner world. No artistic skill or experience is required!

What should a new client know about working with you?

Art is used in session as a tool for expression, insight, and emotional regulation. My approach is collaborative, affirming, and person-centered. Sessions may include guided art prompts, reflective dialogue, mindfulness, and skills-based tools. I utilize CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered therapy.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Through collaboration we can tailor each session to your needs and goals. Creative expression is often part of the work and is introduced at a pace that feels safe and accessible. If you’re curious about using creativity as a pathway to healing or want therapy that feels more intuitive and collaborative, I invite you to reach out for a consultation.
