I will provide compassion and empathy along the way as you work towards your personal goals. I want you to feel comfortable talking to me about what has brought you to my page.

During our time together, we will develop a treatment plan that fits to your needs. I will provide you with activities and direction that will enable you to create change, facilitate growth and practice new skills.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She listens to me concerns well and doesn’t judge
Layla always brings me back to center. I have a very high stress job and some of the things she has helped me with have allowed me to improve my day to day life immensely. I highly recommend her!
Amazing
Layla is truly the best! I’ve had multiple therapist before her and honestly none of them even come close to her. She’s such a good listener and really focuses on your wants and needs. She’s changed my life for the better:)
She’s very nice and understanding and does not judge you
I wasn’t sure what I wanted out of this process. At the time I signed up for therapy, I was desperate for relief from what felt like an avalanche of worries and stressors. Layla methodically helped me unpack and address my stressors and provided me with strategies to process through them. I’m sure she is busy, but I never felt rushed and always felt like she was fully present. As a professional myself, I know how hard that can be. Thank you, Layla!
I love how real and upfront Layla is! She tells it like it is, respectfully, and certainly has the greatest respect and advice a therapist can give. She is so down to earth and always make me feel at my most comfortable feeling to be able to talk to her about anything. I love how involved she is with my feelings and making sure that I am doing okay if she doesn't hear from me in a few days. I hope I can keep her as my therapist for a long time! I would hate to start from the beginning with someone else.
Layla is great at being able to find things to focus on even when I’m not quite sure what I need! She’s so great at listening, validating and even nudging when needed! She’s also super flexible and understanding!
Layla has allowed me to feel comfortable enough to open up and speak freely about things that are going on in my life or just things that have been on my mind. I couldn't be more thankful to have Layla as my therapist and I look forward to speaking to her at every session!
Layla is so nice and helpful at all times! She’s great at bringing up topics and keeping the conversation going so that I feel that I’m always making the most of my time with her! I cannot recommend her enough
Amazing program
Layla is a kind, insightful and giving therapist. She shares her knowledge and her experiences. I find talking with her very soothing.
Layla is incredible. Worth her weight in gold. Would recommend
Layla is very personable. I feel like I am talking to a close friend. I don't feel like I'm talking to a shrink, I feel like I'm talking to someone who genuinely cares.
Layla was incredibly helpful to me during a difficult time of self doubt. She helped remind me of my potential and to stand up for myself. I greatly appreciate her work and look forward to talking with her again in the future!
Layla is so great. I honestly wouldn't know where I would be with out her
Layla is great She offers good service

For my first time attending therapy Layla is from what I can see a great therapist she listens well and try’s to comfort me and help me in all my needs and gets back quickly to me
Layla has made a rough patch in my life feel like I have someone who understands me and is not judging me. She is compassionate and empathetic while also teaching you the perfect ways to re train your brain. She is all around an amazing person.
