LCSW, 8 years of experience
🌻 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.
In our work, we might map your inner experience, explore core values to create a roadmap, practice authentic "yes and no", strengthen boundaries, or care for your inner little one through exercises that feel like time-traveling. We laugh, cry, and play along the way—cultivating self-trust, resilience, and embodiment.
One of my greatest strengths is that I bring a courageous, open heart to our work together. Clients often tell me this makes me easy to be with and helps them feel safe, seen, and unjudged. I believe there’s no such thing as being too broken; we are all capable of healing, and I bring that belief fully into our work. I also take care of myself, which allows me to be fully present for my clients. I keep a smaller caseload to maintain balance, and when I’m not working, I’m in therapy, walking in nature, laughing with friends, gardening, and savoring home-cooked meals. Finally, I love to learn. You can count on me to stay curious and up to date through reading, trainings, and consultation. My commitment to growth—both my own and yours—ensures that our work together is grounded in evidence, creativity, and deep care.
Seeking therapy is an act of courage—to yourself, your growth, and the kind of world you want to live in. I hold space that is safe, affirming, and transformative. My ideal clients are people who love deeply and feel in their bones that life can and should be more pleasurable, connected, and sustainable than what we’ve been handed. You may be longing for sovereignty, belonging, and a greater sense of wholeness. Often, you carry grief—through death, heartbreak, estrangement, or even the quieter, less acknowledged grief of being disconnected from the earth. Life can feel overwhelming, heavy, too much. You want a space that holds both your shadows and your light, where you can rebuild self-trust, resilience, and joy, and live in alignment with love, courage, and authenticity. I bring experience from a wide range of settings—addiction treatment, hospice, private practice, and homeless services—which allows me to meet you wherever you are with compassion, flexibility, and grounded expertise. Many clients are navigating life transitions—divorce, loss, parenthood, career changes—or exploring identity and values, seeking clarity about how they want to show up in the world. You want to feel more alive, authentic, and connected—to yourself, your community, and the earth. If this resonates, you are welcome here, and it would be my honor to walk with you on this path of growth, embodiment, and self-discovery.
My approach to treatment is very intuitive and collaborative depending on each client. I use a neuroscience supported approach called Somatic Experiencing. This is where we work with the body to release stored trauma in order to gain greater self regulation and freedom in your life. We would use a variety of sensation tracking, movement and imaginative exercises to complete cycles of activation within your nervous system. This can leave people feeling lighter, more connected to themselves and others, and with a greater sense of self mastery. In addition to somatic experiencing; I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (teaching mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness and distress tolerance skills), traditional talk therapy, art and story telling.

She was my first therapist ever, when I say, she literally saved my life, I’m not even exaggerating. I can tell she genuinely cares, and that means so much to me because one of my biggest issues is feeling alone in the world. She’s helped me so much.

Kayleigh is an amazing partner in my wellbeing journey. I started working with her during a traumatic time (husband diagnosed with serious illness) and our work together has been invaluable in me being able to navigate this time and also attend to the issues that have been triggered by the situation, as well as other holistic work. I highly recommend her as a therapist.
