Getting to know Kayla Zimmermann

You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and loved more than you know. - Winnie the Pooh Hello! My name is Kayla. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Social Work from Southern Illinois University Carbondale and my Master's degree in Social Work in 2019 from Aurora University. I have experience working at a severe residential facility with foster care children and I have also worked with all ages in private practice. I work with teenagers and adults. I am passionate about supporting those dealing with anxiety, depression, daily stressors, life transitions, anger and behavior management, and challenges with social skills. I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychotherapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Strength-Based Therapy. Ultimately, I believe that building rapport and creating a safe space where you can be yourself is most important. My goal for you is to feel supported, validated, and to know that you are never alone. Seeking therapy can be scary, but I'm here to make the transition as comforting as possible. Taking the first step is the hardest part, but I promise it's worth it!
