Hi! I’m Kaylee (she/her/ella)
As I get older, I grow in my understanding that one of the bravest things we can do is to ask for help. I know how scary it can be to even begin this process.
I’m a cis, mixed Latine (cuban/white), child of an immigrant, artist, mama, disabled person, and fellow navigator of this wild world. I approach my work as a therapist gently, working collaboratively to create an environment that feels secure to you. I believe that one of the greatest tools in therapy is the therapeutic relationship and so I really lean in to building trust through being a human in the space with you (sharing my own humanity, my quirkiness, and humor). I like to go deeper into your history and narratives so that healing can really be activated, as opposed to offering band-aids.
Healing is an active verb that takes time, compassion, and understanding.
I’m here to be alongside you for your journey, one step at a time.
