"We're all mad here."
– Alice in Wonderland
This reminds me that in a world full of chaos and complexity, we’re all just doing our best, and that everyone has their own unique journey.
Hello, I’m Kyla! I work with adolescents (13+), adults, and members of the LGBTQ+ community, supporting clients through challenges including OCD, identity exploration. interpersonal relationship concerns, and identifying behavioural patterns/cycles.
My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and collaborative. I draw from Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, IFS, and DBT to support clients in building insight, emotional resilience, and meaningful change.
I have a particular interest in working with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), intrusive thoughts, and working through attachment trauma. I strive to help clients better understand their internal experiences while gradually building confidence in facing fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming emotions with greater flexibility and self-compassion.
My goal as a counsellor is to provide a supportive and gently challenging space where clients feel safe to explore, heal, and grow. I believe meaningful change happens within a strong therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, authenticity, and curiosity.
Outside the counselling room, I’m an animal mom, plant lover, and someone who values being anywhere but the city.
