About Kayla

Kayla La Rosa is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with three years of clinical experience. She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, and major life changes. She also supports clients facing challenges related to ADHD, bipolar disorder, career strain, compassion fatigue, and cancer-related concerns.

Her approach centers on client-centered practice and motivational methods. She uses solution-focused strategies and draws on cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques. Sessions aim to build on a person's strengths while setting clear boundaries and practical steps toward goals.

Kayla describes her counseling style as mindful and direct when needed. She encourages clients to use their own experience to guide decisions and offers guidance to clarify choices. Meetings are intended to be straightforward and respectful.

She offers regular weekly check-ins and allows messaging between sessions for non-emergency support. The biography notes video, phone, and live text as session options, and messaging is for brief check-ins rather than emergencies.

Kayla has a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in social work. Outside of work she spends weekends trying new hobbies, reading, and taking her rescue dog on outings. The profile frames therapy as a practical step toward change and describes collaboration to reach goals.

BHow sessions work

How her methods translate to online sessions

Kayla combines client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness in short, practical ways. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's goals, useful when someone needs a steady, respectful process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, behaviors, and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and some addictive behaviors.

Mindfulness Therapy involves short attention and breathing practices paired with noticing thoughts and sensations. This approach can help with stress, emotional regulation, and recurring worry. Kayla typically blends these methods rather than using a single, fixed model so sessions can be adapted as needs and goals become clearer.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and test what fits over the first few sessions. This is a collaborative process aimed at choosing strategies that suit the client's schedule and priorities.

The biography lists video, phone, and live text as session options; confirm current session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
