You don't feel like yourself anymore.

Everything feels so overwhelming.

Thoughts spinning. Your heart is pounding so hard you wonder if it’s a heart attack.

Constant worry has you up at 2 am – it’s impossible to fall asleep.

You thought that you could keep it all together.

But you’re afraid that at any moment you will fall completely apart.

Connection feels harder than it used to.

Your relationships are suffering.

Even when you’re together, it’s hard to feel truly connected.

Small misunderstandings turn into bigger conflicts than they should.

There are more moments when you snap at your partner or yell at your kids.

You don’t have time for your friends, though you know you need their support.

Things are slowly coming apart.

The life you worked so hard to build doesn’t feel the way you thought it would.

Stress, overwhelm, and frustration are starting to take up more space in your days.

You catch yourself reacting in ways that don’t feel like the person you used to be.

Part of you worries that if nothing changes, the distance between who you are and who you want to be will keep growing.

And the longer it goes on, the harder it feels to find your way back to yourself.

You've been trying to manage on your own.

Reading books, listening to podcasts, and maybe even trying journaling to make sense of it all.

You push through stress and try to keep everything together.

Sometimes you distract yourself or stay busy, so you don’t have to think about how overwhelmed you feel.

Other times, you promise yourself you’ll figure it out eventually.

But despite your best efforts, things still don’t feel the way they should.

Go from surviving to thriving!

A therapist and client in conversation
Kayla Pineda, therapist

Hi, I'm Kayla.

I’m deeply passionate about this work and committed to helping you better understand yourself and move toward the life you want.

Creating a space where you feel comfortable opening up is essential to me. I bring an easygoing, compassionate, and nonjudgmental approach to our work together.

I specialize in supporting working mothers who feel overwhelmed or weighed down by painful past experiences. Using EMDR and CBT, we’ll explore the patterns that led you here, process what’s holding you back, and build practical tools to navigate the present.

Through therapy, life can begin to feel more manageable – and you can show up with greater confidence in every role you hold.

Reach out for a free consultation. I’ll answer any questions you have and learn more about how I can support you.
