About Kayla
Kayla Daniels is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin. She brings a decade of experience in social work and five years focused on providing therapy. Kayla often supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and issues with sleep and self-esteem.
Her style is warm and strengths-based. She aims to walk alongside clients rather than direct them. Sessions tend to be collaborative and practical, with simple steps you can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Kayla mixes approaches to match what each person needs. She uses client-centered methods to follow the person’s priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to address thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness to help manage stress in the moment. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas are used when people want clear goals and quick, doable changes.
She works with a wide range of concerns including parenting, caregiving stress, blended family issues, chronic pain and illness, domestic violence, and multicultural matters. Kayla also has experience with veteran and armed forces issues and mood disorders such as bipolar conditions. In sessions she emphasizes fairness, compassion, and practical planning.
Clients collaborate on a treatment plan that fits their life and goals. The focus is on small, repeatable steps that build confidence and reduce daily strain.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s priorities and creating space to be heard. Online sessions using this approach let clients set the agenda while the therapist reflects and supports their choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is about identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Over video or phone, CBT tasks and homework can be discussed and tracked between appointments to change daily patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with problem-focused strategies and adding mindfulness or motivational techniques as needed. The process is flexible and tailored together over time.
Online formats offer different practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can fit into brief breaks, provide quick progress check-ins, or support people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to fit therapy into a busy life.
