About Kayla
Kayla Sterling is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eleven years of experience in community mental health. She practices from Wyoming and brings a calm, warm presence to sessions. Kayla aims to make therapy feel approachable for people who are worried or overwhelmed.
She focuses on trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Kayla also supports people navigating parenting strains, grief, body image struggles, ADHD, and work or career transitions.
Background and approach
Her background includes treating a wide range of diagnoses and complex presentations over many years. Kayla’s style is client-centered and adaptable. She listens first, then works with each person to build goals that feel achievable.
Sessions tend to blend gentle exploration of emotion with practical tools for coping and behavior change. Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and cognitive-behavioral tools. That mix helps when addressing patterns in relationships, strong emotions, or trauma reactions.
Kayla aims to match the method to the person rather than use a single technique. People who want a supportive, straightforward therapist often find her helpful. She encourages small steps toward change and focuses on skills you can use between sessions.
For someone ready to try therapy, Kayla offers steady support during the process.

Online support
How emotion-focused and acceptance-based work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on connecting feelings and patterns in relationships. It helps people notice what emotions drive their reactions and learn new ways to respond in close connections. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values to guide action.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kayla will talk with each person about their goals, struggles, and preferences and then choose methods that fit. That collaborative planning helps make sessions feel relevant and practical rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for longer therapy work and emotional exploration. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging can serve as brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or a way to reflect between longer sessions. These options increase flexibility for people juggling work, parenting, or irregular schedules.
