About Jamayla
Jamayla Gray is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with six years of experience helping people navigate strong emotions and life changes. She focuses on practical steps people can use to manage anger, depression, stress, and addictions. Jamayla aims to create a straightforward, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what’s most troubling them.
She uses clear, goal-oriented methods to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. Sessions often include simple exercises to practice between meetings.
Background and approach
Jamayla also listens for how relationships, identity, and life transitions shape someone’s struggles and strengths. Many clients bring concerns about self-esteem, sexuality and LGBT issues, intimacy, or parenting stress. She also supports people coping with grief, chronic health problems, ADHD, and workplace or career pressures.
Jamayla’s approach is practical and compassionate rather than overly clinical. Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients clarify values and test small changes. Attachment-based and emotionally focused ideas guide how she looks at close relationships and patterns that cause pain.
Jamayla uses client-centered skills to keep the conversation grounded on each person’s experience. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. People who prefer online formats can work with her by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their routine.

Using evidence-based approaches in online care
Jamayla draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people name what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps even when emotion is intense. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and testing practical changes that align with personal goals.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors that reduce distress. CBT is useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and habit change because it breaks big problems into manageable exercises and experiments.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jamayla will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is a quick option for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing, between-session contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work moving forward.
