About Jaylea

Jaylea Black is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado and a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Master's Addiction Counselor in Kansas with five years of practice experience. She focuses on common and urgent concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, ADHD, grief, parenting stress, and career strain. Jaylea works with people who identify as LGBT and with those facing chronic or terminal illness.

She uses a mix of straightforward techniques aimed at practical change. Sessions often include cognitive-behavioral approaches to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. EMDR is also part of her toolbox for processing traumatic memories. Solution-focused work and motivational interviewing help set and reach concrete goals.

Jaylea describes her style as interactive and respectful. Early meetings are used to set expectations and goals. The first session is a consult to confirm the match and plan next steps together.

Her background includes work across rural and urban settings and with a wide age range starting at early childhood. That experience informs how she helps people manage stress, cope with life transitions, and address parenting concerns alongside mood and substance issues.

Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented. Jaylea aims to reduce stigma in care and to talk plainly about symptoms, coping strategies, and steps that fit daily life. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial consult.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Jaylea commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR in her practice. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. EMDR focuses on processing disturbing memories so they interfere less with day-to-day life and can be useful for trauma-related symptoms.

She also draws on mindfulness-informed work to help people build attention and reduce reactivity. These methods are explained in simple terms and adjusted to the client’s needs. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - the therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and change course if something isn’t working.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week, having shorter check-ins when needed, and choosing session times that align with work or caregiving schedules. The therapist’s specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. The focus is on making therapy fit everyday life while working through symptoms, skills, and concrete problems together.
