More about Kalyn

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

Welcome! Congrats on this first step. I hope you realize just how important this moment is and that you have made a major step forward in overcoming whatever it may be that you are having difficulty with right now. My name is Kalyn and I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 7 years experience working in the field. I have worked with individuals with concerns such as anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, parenting issues, as well as many, many others. Over the span of 7 years I have worked with many types of clients, so if I haven't listed what you are going through right now, that doesn't mean I haven't helped a client with it! Please message me if you have any questions or want to know more.

My approach is empathetic, non-judgmental, and client-centered. I like to meet clients where they are in their life, at that moment, and work from there. I mainly use CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, and Client-Centered therapies, but I also pull from other modalities based on clients' needs.

I'm here to help and want to support and guide you through this time. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
