Evidence-based therapy, adapted for online care
Kyla Sorenne draws on approaches that support both practical change and deeper emotional healing. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them, while building actions that align with personal values. It can be especially useful when stress, anxiety, grief, or life changes make it hard to move forward.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It offers structured tools to challenge unhelpful patterns and develop new coping skills, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and habit cycles that feel hard to shift. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and ongoing relationships shape emotions, needs, and boundaries, and it can support clients who feel stuck in patterns linked to abandonment, codependency, or relationship distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kyla works collaboratively, adjusting the focus based on a client’s goals, preferences, and what feels most supportive at each stage of therapy.
Online sessions make it easier to get support in a way that fits real life. Clients can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility around work, caregiving, travel, and energy levels while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
