About Kayla

Kayla Burrow is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and other life disruptions. Kayla aims to help clients tap into their own strengths and move toward practical change.

Before private practice Kayla worked in a range of clinical settings including psychiatric emergency care, inpatient units, and outpatient programs. She has run group work on anger management, stress reduction, parenting, and life skills which informs her practical approach in individual sessions. Her background gives her experience with complex and co-occurring concerns.

Kayla uses a person-centered stance and blends several evidence-informed methods. Those include cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior techniques, mindfulness exercises, and motivational interviewing. She adapts tools to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

In-session work is straightforward and task-focused when that’s helpful. Kayla also pulls in broader wellbeing practices when clients want a whole-person plan that includes body and emotion. Sessions often involve setting small goals, practicing skills, and reviewing progress.

She lists a wide range of concerns she supports, from depression and bipolar mood symptoms to grief, addiction-related struggles, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy issues. Kayla’s approach centers on collaboration - she works with each person to build steps that fit their life and goals.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Kayla combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Client-centered therapy means sessions focus on the person’s priorities and move at their pace. Cognitive behavioral techniques include setting small goals, trying new behaviors, and tracking how thoughts affect feelings and choices.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when strong feelings or impulsive reactions get in the way of goals. DBT-style skills teach clear steps to manage overwhelming moments and improve interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then suggest strategies to try. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted as progress is tracked.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten check-ins when needed, and cut out travel time. It also allows practice of skills in real-life settings and easier follow-up between meetings, helping therapeutic progress fit into everyday routines.
