Psychotherapist
IL
Hi there, I'm Kyla! My name is Kyla Donovan, and I am a licensed clinical social worker based in Illinois. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Aurora University and my Bachelor’s degree from the University of Illinois Chicago. I specialize in providing compassionate therapy to help you overcome obstacles and achieve personal growth. I tailor my approach to each individual based on their specific needs and believe in a holistic path to treating clients to achieve balance in all areas of life. My approach I use person-centered therapy with an empathic, non-judgmental approach, accepting a client's right to self-determination. I empower clients to reach their own insights and healing. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients explore various internal parts, understand how development contributed to unwanted patterns, and support healing. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify maladaptive thought patterns and provide strategies for healthier narratives and behaviors. My focus I work with clients facing a wide range of mental health concerns, focusing on anxiety, trauma, relationship and family issues, and life transitions. My communication style My style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental, ensuring you feel heard and supported. I create a safe, inclusive environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. Together, we build trust and work toward meaningful growth and healing. My journey to mental healthcare I knew I wanted to be a therapist since middle school. I had a fascination with psychology and a desire to make a meaningful impact by helping others. My personal healing helped me embrace my sensitivity and empathy, making therapy a natural fit and allowing me to thrive in my dream career.
