I have worked with KaylaJoy regularly for a number of years now and have found her wisdom invaluable in navigating challenging life circumstances. Even healthy people have challenges… with relationships of all kinds… including the one with self. In my view, an excellent therapist helps a client explore and define who they are, and in the context of doing so helps that client elevate all of their relationships. While remaining unfailingly compassionate, KaylaJoy helps me examine my thoughts, beliefs and actions, and challenges me to confront the things that might be getting in my way. Working with her has helped me learn to set healthy boundaries, to be fully responsible for my part in relationship dynamics, and to move confidently through the world knowing who I am. I have had experiences with other therapists… running the gamut from ineffective to damaging… and will be forever grateful to have made my way onto KaylaJoy’s couch. JP / Fall City
I’ve been seeing KaylaJoy almost every week over the past year. She has helped me work thru some past trauma and current family drama. She is so supportive and really listens to understand where you are coming from.
Her guidance and insight has been truly lifesaving for me. She likes animals. And she’s LGBTQ compassionate and an ally. What’s not to like. JDB / Renton
I have had the opportunity of working with KaylaJoy Sherwood over the past two + years. From the start I was hesitant and reserved as I had been through so many counselors before that provided me with no help, leading me to believe that there was no hope in my recovery. Although it started out as mandated therapy, I can happily say that I now look forward to each session with KayaJoy and can state with confidence that she has completely changed my life for the better. I went from suicide attempts and self harm, to confidence and an ability to handle my emotions which is something I had never experienced before. KaylaJoy is understanding, loyal and compassionate, she truly believes in me and gives me the support I need to help me thrive. AG / Renton
When I started seeing KaylaJoy I was at my lowest point, I was overwhelmed with many different stressors. My life is at a point I never expected it to be thanks to KaylaJoy’s patience and empathy. I have never once felt uncomfortable or judged during my sessions. She is a true educator in self care. I highly recommend KaylaJoy, she is professional and reliable KL / Tacoma
I have had the opportunity to meet with a few therapists throughout my life but none have actually been a trusting connection like the one I have with KaylaJoy. First of all she has an abundance of sweet little fur loves (dogs and cats) that are allowed in the room for each session (if requested by the client). I am an animal person and this immediately put me at ease. Secondly, she is open and honest with what she is trying to help me discover ways in which I can help myself through my PTSD. I love when professionals equip you with tools to become stronger in and out of their sessions. I have never felt surprised or shocked in our conversations and I feel comfortable talking about all things professional, personal, child development, dog training for my pups, and in my relationships. Highly recommend KaylaJoy! BP / Mercer Island
My husband and I are currently seeing KaylaJoy, both individually and as a couple for therapy. She has been amazing and has helped us get through some of life’s ups and downs. She is a great listener and gives useful and practical advice, as well as strategies to practice at home to improve communication and deal with conflict in a productive way. We are so happy to have found her! LG & MG / Issaquah
