Hello! I'm Kaylie (she/they). As a queer clinician, I am dedicated to providing a safe and affirming space for identity exploration, navigating coming out, and validating your queer experiences. Supporting the LGBT+ community is a central motivation for my career as a therapist. I also work with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, and I focus on supporting neurodiverse populations, including those with autism and ADHD. My goal is to help clients develop skills to navigate their environments and offer a supportive space to address the challenges they face in a world that may not always accommodate their needs. I believe that the therapeutic alliance is the cornerstone of effective therapy. Building trust and rapport is essential, and I strive to make this process both approachable and relevant to your everyday life. Recognizing that therapy can sometimes feel intimidating, I am committed to creating an environment where you feel comfortable and understood.

I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), focusing on skills in mi
