About Kaila

Kaila Lewis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, low self esteem, and depression. She approaches sessions with plain language and a practical focus so parents and individuals can follow along easily. Kaila emphasizes strengths and personal knowledge of each person’s story.

She aims to make early steps toward change feel doable and hopeful. Kaila uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try small changes that can make daily life feel easier.

Background and approach

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and build momentum with steps that matter most to the client. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with concrete strategies to try between meetings. Her background includes four years of professional counseling experience in Louisiana.

She holds the LPC credential and brings a supportive, empowering style to the work. Kaila sees progress as a series of practical moves rather than one big shift, and she helps people notice small wins along the way. People who prefer straightforward conversation and attainable goals may find her style a good match.

Her approach centers on listening first, then choosing strategies that fit each person’s life. Kaila aims to help clients feel more confident making changes and handling day-to-day pressures. She communicates in English and provides sessions using several online formats.

The process begins with a short questionnaire and scheduling to connect on the right next step.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In online sessions Kaila helps identify patterns of thinking that increase stress or anxiety and practices small changes that can improve mood and behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on what the client wants to change next and builds short-term, practical steps to get there. This approach is useful when someone wants quick momentum and clear, measurable progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kaila talks with each person about their goals and preferences and then tailors the methods to fit their needs. The choice of tools is collaborative, and adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone conversations when more in-depth discussion is needed. For quick check-ins or step-by-step guidance between meetings, live chat and text-based messaging are available. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy family schedule and to use chosen strategies in everyday life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
