About Kayla

Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 12 years of experience, Kayla Thompson helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on post-traumatic stress, self-love, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse. Kayla practices in Ohio and conducts sessions in English.

Kayla structures sessions around clear, practical conversations. She works with each person to set goals and decide what to talk about next. Expect straightforward reflection, pacing that suits your needs, and a focus on skills that can be used between sessions.

Her approach is adaptable to the issue at hand. For anxiety and stress she will prioritize techniques that reduce daily overwhelm. For trauma and abuse she emphasizes steady, manageable steps so progress is easier to track. For low self-esteem and self-love she helps people practice new ways of relating to themselves.

Sessions include checking current concerns, reviewing what’s been tried, and planning small, realistic next steps. Kayla describes treatment planning as collaborative - she and the client decide what to try and when to reassess. Conversations often include practical coping strategies and attention to how clients live their daily lives.

People who choose Kayla usually want a direct, respectful clinician who focuses on concrete change. She asks about what matters most early in care and keeps the work focused on clear, achievable aims. To begin she asks clients to complete basic intake steps and schedule a first session.

How Kayla’s approaches translate to remote work

Kayla draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and steady progress. For anxiety and stress she uses strategies that teach breathing, grounding, and gradual behavior changes to reduce daily overwhelm. For trauma-related concerns she favors stepwise approaches that break healing into smaller, manageable tasks and safety-focused check-ins. These methods aim to help people practice new responses and notice small improvements over time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kayla treats the selection of techniques as collaborative: she and the client review what has helped, try methods in session, and adjust plans based on results and preferences. This lets clients see what fits before committing to a longer plan.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific remote options. That said, online care can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use phone or lower-bandwidth options when video would be difficult. Ask about available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can plan sessions that fit your daily life.
