About

Hi, I'm Kyla.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's in Education and Counseling. My practice, TeleKyla, is fully virtual — designed so therapy fits into your life, not the other way around.

I became a therapist because I believe deeply in the power of being truly heard. Too often people arrive in my (virtual) office carrying years of "I should be over this by now" — and my first job is to gently retire that voice.

My work centers on anxiety and trauma, but at its heart it's about helping people rebuild a relationship with themselves that feels safer, more curious, and more free. I draw from evidence-based approaches — including cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-focused modalities, and mindfulness — always tailored to who you are.

Outside of sessions, you'll find me near water whenever possible, reading more books than I can finish, and reminding myself to practice what I preach.
