Owner of Bud and Bloom
Hello and Welcome!
My name is Kayla, and I am SO glad that you are here. I truly believe that one of the bravest (and most challenging) things you can do is take the first step towards self-growth and healing. So congratulations on taking the step that led you to this website.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with over 8 years of experience working within the mental health sector. I have experience working with a variety of presenting issues including, trauma, depression, self-esteem issues, anxiety, and pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns.
I use a person-centred approach, and am experienced using the following interventions: Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBCT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I believe in utilising a strengths-based approach in each session, and will work alongside you to accomplish your goals. When working with me, I make the commitment to ensuring that you feel safe, supported, and accepted for who you are. I commit to working in collaboration with you as we build your self-compassion, reconnect with your inner strength, and develop some new ways of coping. I commit to ensuring that you never have to doubt the validity of your goals or struggles.
Here are some of my core beliefs:
Everyone deserves to live a life that is safe, fulfilling, and full of connection to the things you love
Humans are relational creatures, we were not made to face challenges alone
Every person is the expert of their own life & has the capacity to make the changes and/or grow in the way they desire
Warmth, trust, and connection are some of the most important roots for healing
When in doubt, use mindfulness and gratitude
I would love to connect with you! Please reach out for a Free 15-minute consultation call.
