About Kayla
Kayla Daniels is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with ten years of overall experience and five years practicing as a therapist. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, and issues related to ADHD and bipolar disorder.
Kayla uses a client-centered approach. She focuses on a strengths-based way of working that keeps the person's goals in view. Sessions are collaborative - the client and therapist decide together what to try next.
Her practice blends several methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Mindfulness techniques help people notice and tolerate difficult feelings. Motivational interviewing supports change when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps.
Kayla also brings experience from social work roles with a wide range of clients, including people who have experienced domestic violence, trauma, or are connected to the military and veteran community. That background informs how she recognizes practical problems and safety concerns while planning treatment.
She aims to create clear, practical plans and check in on progress regularly. Examples of topics Kayla helps people with include sleep struggles, parenting stress, career worries, anger, low self-esteem, intimacy challenges, and caregiver strain. The focus is on small, manageable steps toward the goals a person sets.
People who prefer direct, goal-focused conversations may find this style helpful. Kayla offers sessions in English and practices in Wisconsin as an LCSW.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following the client's lead to identify goals and next steps. It helps people who want a collaborative, respectful way to talk through what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention exercises and grounding practices to help reduce reactivity and stay present during strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kayla partners with clients to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. She checks progress and adjusts plans when something is not working, so the plan stays practical and focused on the client's goals.
The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that fit a lunch break, and some people prefer not being on camera during parts of a session. Ask about format details when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
