Meet Kyla: Anxiety & Relationship Therapist in Toronto

As someone who lives with anxiety, I relate to how much of a struggle it can be to get stuck in those ruminations, and get fixated on thoughts and fears that may be considered irrational but that you can't talk yourself out of. Unfortunately, anxiety isn't something that will ever fully disappear, but it is something that can be managed effectively. As a therapist, I love working with my clients to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and using evidence-based treatments like CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques to live more at ease and experience peace. I love helping my clients to build their anxiety and stress regulation muscles so that they can bring themselves back to a state of groundedness.

I'm also deeply passionate about working with relationship and attachment wounds, and have experience working with infidelity and narcissistic abuse. Relationship traumas can have deep and lasting impacts on the way we relate to others and ourselves. They can make you feel overwhelmed, distressed, confused and like you have to walk on eggshells even when you're in healthy relationships. On the other hand, how you currently feel in your relationship or friendship may be because of unhealthy, toxic, or abusive dynamics and behaviours within the relationship. If you're asking yourself the question of "is it me? Is it them? Or is it the relationship?", that can feel very overwhelming and disorienting. I can provide an empathetic and objective ear to help bring clarity to the situation. We'll work together to prioritize your therapy goals and develop a customized treatment plan that's unique to your situation.

Please schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me so that we can meet and connect with each other to see if we're a good fit for working together. I look forward to connecting and supporting you in your healing journey.

For the time being, I am only able to work with Ontario residents.
