How can psychotherapy help me reach my goals?
KaylaJoy works with people as young as pre-school age, on up through all the stages of maturing, into elder adulthood. Her clients include couples, individuals and families. People come to work on relationship, self-esteem, communication, parenting, career path, and spirituality/faith issues. She also works with the LGBTQ+ community, and with symptoms of anxiety, depression, childhood abuse, addictions, and much more. Most clients are interested in in-depth work, so specific concerns often branch out into the deeper work of feeling happier, more connected, inspired and peaceful. Into stepping more fully into their Amati.
Typical Session
Eith online, via Zoom, or in-person in a relaxed and confidential setting (home office), you can cuddle up with any of the pet therapy animals (or not) on a comfortable couch. After some brief paperwork review in the first session, KaylaJoy will ask you some questions about your personal history and what you want to work on and then the work begins…
