I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself. I believe healing can happen through both meaningful conversations and moments of humor. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, or simply feeling stuck, I'm here to help you feel understood, empowered, and genuinely connected to yourself. If any of this resonates, I'd love to connect.

I started my work with infants and young children, guided by a simple belief: when we understand the meaning behind behavior, everything in a family can begin to shift. I use play as a primary way to connect with children and understand their inner world. Through play, children express thoughts and feelings they may not yet have words for. By joining them in this space, I’m able to better understand their experiences and help them feel seen, supported, and safe.

My path to becoming a therapist began in children’s media, where I spent fifteen years project managing educational content. That experience shaped how I see children today—curious, expressive, and constantly communicating, even without words.

I went on to earn my Master’s degree from New York University, training at the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Center, where I deepened my understanding of how music and play can help children feel seen, regulated, and understood.

My clinical work has included early intervention, a specialized school for autistic children and young adults, and an elementary school supporting students with hearing loss and communication differences. Across these settings, I saw how powerful it is when a child is truly met where they are.

In 2023, I founded Sound Mind to create a more individualized, relationship-based practice—one where I can connect deeply and tailor my work to each child and family.

I conduct therapy sessions in both English and Spanish. I have experience working with individuals facing challenges related to depression and/or anxiety, as well as those with a history of self-harm and suicidal ideation. I also work with clients to heal from sexual abuse, intimate partner violence, intergenerational trauma, and racial trauma.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in somatic psychotherapy, which acknowledges the mind-body connection and the ways stress is held in the body. As a first-generation Mexican, I am deeply passionate about supporting BIPOC individuals and those from immigrant families.

Additionally, I have a strong background in working with individuals who engage in problematic sexual behavior, as well as those seeking to address an unhealthy relationship with alcohol and drugs.

I’m Kaymara Gayle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works primarily with adults (18+) navigating grief, anxiety, relationship issues, and depression. My approach is supportive and collaborative—I don’t just listen, I partner with you. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and challenges that may be holding you back and work toward insight, healing, and growth.

I’m an insightful and compassionate therapist who believes in meeting clients where they are. Whether you're overwhelmed by loss, stuck in unhealthy relationship dynamics, or battling anxious or low moods, I will help you make sense of what you're feeling and why. I value honesty, care deeply about my clients’ progress, and bring a thoughtful, strategic mindset to our work.

You don’t have to face things alone. If you're ready to understand yourself more deeply and move toward change, I’m here to guide and support you each step of the way.
