When you enter therapy with Kyana, you can expect a space that is warm, nonjudgmental, and rooted in emotional safety.

She works collaboratively with each client, honoring your lived experiences while helping you develop greater insight, clarity, and confidence in navigating life’s challenges.

Kyana integrates evidence based therapeutic approaches to support meaningful change, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; Emotion Focused strategies to deepen emotional awareness and processing; Trauma informed care to support healing from past experiences; and interpersonal techniques to strengthen communication, boundaries, and relationships. Therapy is not just about talking it is about learning practical tools you can apply in your daily life to support emotional regulation, healthier thinking, and more fulfilling connections.

​

Through A.C.T.S., Kyana supports individuals navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, identity development, life transitions, grief, and emotional overwhelm. Her approach blends clinical knowledge with real world application helping you move from surviving to intentionally living.  Whether you are seeking clarity, emotional healing, or personal growth, Kyana is committed to walking alongside you as you develop the self awareness, emotional resilience, and relational skills needed to live in alignment with your authentic self.
