Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.​​Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

The stories we carry about our relationships deeply influence how we connect. At Pinehurst Relationships, I serve individuals, couples, and families in North Seattle and across Washington State. I believe your struggle is part of your story—but it isn’t the whole story. You don’t have to stay confined to a chapter defined by conflict, distance, or misunderstanding.

My online practice brings a narrative, relational, and systemic approach, helping you shift away from old, stuck patterns, rebuild connection, and find steady emotional ground. Whether you are navigating these heavy chapters as a couple, looking to strengthen a partnership, or seeking individual therapy for relationship issues, let's re-author your story together. If you are seeking a narrative framework to help rewrite family conflict or looking for support and family therapy with a child age 7+, we will map out a path forward.

Education and experience: I hold a BA from the University of Washington (1985) and an MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from Antioch Seattle (2022). My clinical roots include a dedicated internship in community mental health in Edmonds and an associate residency at a Seattle group practice.

Specialized Training:

Outside the office, I recharge by gardening, walking with my partner, and heading out on PNW trail adventures with our hiking cat, Jasper.
