Kayla Austria, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Kayla! I offer a safe, supportive space where you’re recognized for your strengths, not just your struggles. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, and together we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on healing, building confidence, and reconnecting with your natural resilience. My approach I use a trauma-informed, strengths-based lens grounded in evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness practices. My goal is to help you reconnect with your resilience and feel more in control of your story. My focus My ideal client has carried the weight of survival for too long, often without support. They may come from underserved communities, facing intergenerational trauma, systemic injustice, or childhood instability. Despite it all, they bring deep inner strength and a quiet drive for healing, healthier relationships, and lasting change. My communication style In our work together, I prioritize a warm, respectful, and client-centered approach. I meet you where you are, moving at a pace that feels right for you—never rushed or forced. My goal is to create a space that feels safe and supportive, where your voice leads the process and your strengths guide our path toward healing. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I’ve always wanted the best for others and believed in the power of being truly heard and supported. Therapy allows me to walk alongside people in their healing, offering care, tools, and hope as they work toward the life they deserve. My goals for you I help clients set realistic, meaningful goals by focusing on what matters most to them. We break goals into manageable steps and move at a comfortable pace. Together, we regularly check in and reassess, making adjustments as needed to ensure goals stay aligned with your growth and progress.
