Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Dublin, OH

Welcome to Divergent Therapy Solutions! I'm Kayla and am here to support your therapy journey.

Most of my experience has been in a school setting for a community mental health agency. I've also worked with students in grades K-12 at a trauma informed alt ed. program.

My work in private practice began after the pandemic started and I found myself searching for ways to help people access therapy. I serve clients of all ages and backgrounds.

I am an identified LGBTQ+ provider and am Neurodivergent.

I think it is important to know that I am a very genuine person who strives to make the counseling space feel warm and safe.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about your journey? You don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m Jen, a compassionate Licensed Independent Social Worker dedicated to helping you find clarity and healing. With over 7 years of experience in counseling and 18 years of working in child welfare, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a heartfelt commitment to support your emotional well-being.

I earned a Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Cincinnati after working in Children's Protective Services and Juvenile Court facilities. I have years of experience helping children, youth and families connect and function in more healthy ways. I see adults and couples as well, and strive to facilitate healing of hearts and marriages.

I have personal and professional experience in foster parenting and adoption. One of my special areas of interest is the effects of nutrition and exercise on mental health. I have utilized Equine-assisted Psychotherapy for twenty years as a specialty.

I have been licensed as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor since 2004 and have held a supervision designation since 2015. I have also held a Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor with a supervision/training designation license since 2018. I have maintained a private counseling practice in Chillicothe since 2000 and I continue to work with individuals and families in that capacity. I have dedicated my career to helping others and to working with the community to ensure the well-being of families and children.

My communication style

My communication tone or approach tends to be direct but laid back. We are in session to work together not have me tell you what to do or where you need to go

I offer a warm, safe space to talk through what you’re facing and learn skills that actually make a difference. I work with kids, teens, and adults coping with trauma, anxiety, and stress. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and LGBTQ-affirming, and I tailor therapy to fit your goals and pace.
