"Glimmers are brief moments of joy, peace, or safety that can help us feel more balanced and connected." Deb Dana, Polyvagal

Wherever you are on your path, we’re here to walk beside you—offering support, encouragement, and a way forward.

​

At Glimmer Path Collective, we believe healing happens in connection—and you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Our mission is to provide a warm, supportive space where growth feels possible, and hope shines through even in the toughest moments.

​

We help clients move through life transitions, heal from heartbreak, overcome self-doubt, and process trauma with empathy, evidence-based tools, and a touch of humor.

Glimmering Moments, Empowering Journeys 
What Guides Glimmer Path Collective: Our Core Beliefs

Glimmer Forward 

Life may be messy, but there’s always a glimmer of light to guide the way. We celebrate small victories and use humor to bring lightness to your journey. Every step is a step forward.

Path of Growth

Growth isn’t always linear, but it’s always meaningful. We help you navigate life’s twists and turns with resilience and self-compassion, ensuring you feel empowered and balanced.

Collective Strength

You don’t have to walk this path alone. We believe in the power of community—where connection, encouragement, and shared strength create a space for you to thrive.

You are worthy of healing, growth, and the life you envision.

Hi, I’m Kayla—Let’s Find Your Light Together.

Life is messy, unpredictable, and sometimes just plain hard. Even when you’re doing all the “right” things, it can still feel like something’s missing. I get it—not just as a therapist, but as a person who’s been there. I know what it’s like to navigate life’s twists and turns, to question myself, to learn (and unlearn) what it truly means to take care of my own well-being.

That’s why I’m so passionate about this work. I believe in creating a space where you feel seen—where your struggles, your feelings, and your wins all matter. Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you (because you’re not broken). It’s about helping you reconnect with yourself, rediscover your strength, and find clarity in the midst of uncertainty.

In our sessions, you’ll find a mix of evidence-based techniques and a real, down-to-earth approach—because healing isn’t just about strategies; it’s about connection. Whether you’re facing anxiety, a major life change, heartbreak, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you. You don’t have to figure it all out alone—let’s take this step together.
