About Kayla
Kayla Daniels is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years in the field and five years in direct therapy. She helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Her style is warm and strengths-based to help people feel understood and capable.
She follows a client-centered approach that puts each person’s goals first. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings. Kayla draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and mindfulness skills to reduce reactivity.
Background and approach
Her work also includes solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to help people clarify what matters and take small, doable steps toward it. She can support concerns tied to trauma and abuse, intimacy and relationship strain, parenting challenges, sleep problems, ADHD, and caregiver stress. Kayla also addresses issues related to identity, multicultural concerns, and mood disorders.
Kayla has experience helping people facing chronic illness, chronic pain, blended family challenges, divorce and separation, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. She seeks to build practical plans tailored to each person’s circumstances and strengths. The focus is on what helps now and what skills will sustain change.
Sessions are offered from Wisconsin and conducted in English. Her approach is collaborative - she listens, offers tools, and adjusts as people try new strategies. If someone wants a straightforward, empathetic therapist who emphasizes concrete skills, Kayla offers that kind of steady support.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's goals and preferences; online sessions allow the therapist to follow a person's pace and priorities while making adjustments as needed. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses specific exercises to change patterns; CBT works well online because worksheets, behavioral experiments, and thought records can be reviewed together during video or messaging sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques collaboratively, and adjust methods to match a person's needs and comfort. Goals and plans are revisited as progress is made so the approach fits over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and close interaction. Phone calls are good when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be used for brief check-ins, goal tracking, or when a shorter, more frequent touchpoint helps keep progress on track. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or health-related routines.
