Kayla Rhodes
It never ceases to amaze me just how often I have to try to convince others that they are worthy SIMPLY because they exist. This includes you! I want to know who communicated to you that you are not enough and why you value the opinion of said person(s); these types of harmful beliefs are learned, not innate. Let's unlearn them together. Most of my early clinical work has been with children and adolescents with focus on Autism Spectrum Disorders, ADHD, trauma and various behavioral and emotional issues. I have worked in high-intensity and high-crisis environments from school to hospital settings.

I am passionate about working with and creating a safe space for folks who belong to BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. I understand that belonging to a marginalized/oppressed group can result in barriers to achieving and maintaining optimal mental health. I am a cis/het woman doing my best to provide care that is equitable and gender-affirming. I'm always learning and growing as an ally; you will always be safe here. I am also always looking at things through a trauma-informed lens. I'm a busy working parent who understands how hard it can be to do it all. I am currently pursuing a certification in treating perinatal mood and anxiety disorders to be able to better support soon-to-be and new parents; this particular journey is no joke!

First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Strengths
I think that some of my current and past clients would describe me as their personal hype woman. It's important to me that you know your worth and have people in your life who treat you the way you deserve. I won't let you get away with being unkind to yourself. I'm here to help you in increasing your self-esteem, ability to be assertive and setting/holding healthy boundaries with yourself and others. In times of transition, it can be incredibly tough to maintain a healthy balance between, work, parenting, relationships, etc. It's easy to fall further away from prioritizing your own needs and disconnect from your values and what brings you joy. I want to help you get back to YOU.
