Meet Shyla

I work with clients seeking relief and direction in their lives. I am warm, engaged, and honest, helping you slow down to see patterns that keep you stuck while teaching behavioral skills to move toward your goals. Therapy with me is focused, collaborative, and action-oriented, so the changes you make are meaningful, sustainable, and aligned with the life you want. Whether you are rebuilding, redefining yourself, or entering a new season of life, I support you in moving forward with intention, emotion regulation, and confidence.
