About Kayla

Kayla Culleton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with five years of experience. She focuses on common and persistent struggles such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and anger. Kayla also supports people dealing with stress, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She uses clear methods to help people understand patterns in their thoughts and reactions. Sessions focus on practical steps that can be tried between meetings rather than abstract talk alone.

Kayla draws from several evidence-informed approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the person’s own goals. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused ideas are used to build small, achievable changes.

In sessions she works on communication problems, panic and social anxiety, and issues related to drug and alcohol use. She also addresses relationship strain and questions about life purpose. The overall aim is clearer thinking and better coping for day-to-day challenges.

People who prefer practical tools and direct collaboration tend to do well with her method. Kayla helps clients break big problems into manageable steps and track progress. She asks clients to try techniques between sessions and reviews what works and what needs adjusting.

How sessions work

How Kayla’s approaches work for online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s goals. It gives space for someone to say what matters most and for the therapist to reflect that back. This helps when anger or frustration feels tied to unmet needs or relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) guides people to notice thought patterns that fuel strong reactions and to try concrete behavior changes. CBT is practical for problems like panic attacks, workplace stress, and repeated angry responses.

Motivational Interviewing supports making changes when ambivalence slows progress. It uses short, goal-oriented conversations to build momentum for quitting substances, shifting habits, or trying new coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kayla will discuss which methods seem most useful and adjust based on the client’s goals and preferences. She treats the choice as collaborative and checks in about what helps and what needs to be changed.

The original biography does not specify exact online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Discuss format preferences during the first appointment to agree on a rhythm that fits everyday life.
