🌻 Hello, I am Kayleigh Eden, a bright, colorful, warm story keeper and teller. I am a licensed clinical social worker with a neuroscience informed perspective specializing in trauma, grief and addiction. I have a genuine love, empathy and fascination with people and their experiences, and I believe this gives me a talent for understanding where my clients are coming from. I know that no matter what has brought you here seeking a therapist, you are someone with a purpose and a worthwhile story to tell and continue living out. I’d love to be a place to rest, a listening ear to share a cup of tea with, or even a guide along the way. I believe that healing ourselves is the most vital courageous thing we could do for ourselves and the collective. I've come to know that growth is often very uncomfortable and even painful. Which is why so many people choose not to! Because of this, I believe in bringing as much joy and passion as possible into your treatment journey. Trauma, grief and addiction can rob us of our connection to life, and I think love, our values, creativity, and compassion can anchor us back into our desired experiences. I utilize a combination of behavioral therapy (DBT,CBT), somatic experiencing for teaching nervous system regulation skills, as well as values exploration, art and storytelling.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first few sessions, we will likely be getting to know each other. This can be a time for you to get things off your chest, for me to ask questions and get to know you. I'd like to know what you are currently experiencing, what you would like to be experiencing, and what may be getting in the way. With this information we will develop a collaborative treatment plan.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Through my career and personal life, I have seen some of the darkest places life can go and still choose to embrace life with a courageous open heart. I've been told this makes me easy to be with, and helps people to not feel judged. I believe there is no such thing as being too broken, that we are all capable of healing as long as we live. I think this unconditional positive regard has given my clients a sense of having someone really see and believe in them. Another major strength is that I take care of myself. I will keep a smaller caseload to really allow me to maintain my work life balance. When I'm not working I am going to my own therapy, going on long walks, laughing with friends, gardening and enjoying home cooked meals. And finally, I love to learn. You can count on me to always be reading, attending trainings, seeking consultation to ensure my practice is up to date and evidence based.
