Getting to know Kayla Kerr

I am a client-centered therapist, always aiming to create an inviting, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space for you to feel comfortable sharing all the parts of who you are. I will work with you to understand your goals and adjust interventions to fit your specific needs. I am honest, kind, and find that humor can help foster trust in the therapeutic relationship.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I have experience working with adolescents, adults, aging adults, and LGBTQ+ community. I am committed to providing an affirming and inclusive environment for all identities. I support clients navigating a range of challenges including anxiety, depression, grief/loss, autism, ADHD, identity, trauma, and PTSD. My practice is rooted in cultural humility through a trauma informed lens, and I integrate techniques from EMDR, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and mindfulness to support each client's individual process.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My intention is to meet you exactly where you are in your journey, support you in accessing your inner strengths, explore new possibilities, and move toward the life you want to live. In our first session, we will simply get to know one another and discuss your goals - you set the pace. I provide a free 15-minute consultation to talk and see if we are a good fit.
