It would be my pleasure to work with you! My name is Kim Sylla and I have been interested in the field of social services since childhood when I enthusiastically listened to the life stories of those around me including friends, neighbors and extended relatives. This interest grew with with my first therapist volunteer experience -- at the age of 20 -- with individuals who had substance use and mental health disorders. Since then I have had a wide array of additional volunteer and work experiences with adults and adolescents undergoing various life challenges at work, school, home and in the larger community. My varied experience, training and education prepared me to use an integrative therapeutic approach that draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and ecological systems theory.

I have five years experience in holding space for tears, breakthroughs, goals, dreams, laughs, fears, regrets, guilt, joy, and hope. There is nothing I love more than a good story. I don't listen to "problems" all day, I listen to unique stories about people and their lives. No two experiences are the same. Avoidance is in fact a coping skill, not the best one, but a skill. If you've been avoiding exploring an issue and feel it's time to take another approach I'm here to support and guide you to new patterns of thinking and healthier ways to thrive. We will utilize perspective taking, an acceptance approach as well as cognitive reframing to reset and really tap into your existing skill set.

I believe that if every human being had someone to provide them with unconditional positive regard, especially during the formative years of childhood, our world would be a safer place. Unfortunately, many of us don’t even make it through childhood without wounds from emotionally painful experiences. Sometimes the consequences of these experiences are long-lasting and can impact our well-being, relationships, and work. Fortunately, therapy can help. I have worked in community and university settings for the past 7 years, and I have experience treating a variety of mental health struggles such as anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, trauma, marriage/family issues, and communication challenges.
