About Kayla
Kayla Fruetel focuses on creating a calm, steady space for people who feel overwhelmed. She meets clients where they are and helps them sort through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and low self-esteem. Kayla uses plain language and practical steps so conversations feel clear and manageable.
She believes the person in the room is the expert on their life. Kayla builds on strengths and practical goals rather than assuming one right answer.
How Kayla works
Sessions look different depending on needs - sometimes they focus on immediate coping skills, other times on bigger life changes or past hurts. Her work draws on client-centered principles, cognitive-behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. That mix helps with mood concerns like depression and bipolar symptoms, as well as issues such as addiction, trauma and intimacy-related struggles.
She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, and the stresses of young adulthood. Kayla holds professional licenses as an LPC and an LMHC and brings eight years of clinical experience. She practices from Florida and offers sessions in English.
People can expect a collaborative approach that balances listening with clear, teachable skills. Starting therapy can feel hard, and Kayla aims to make the process straightforward. She helps set small, achievable goals and checks in on progress so change feels steady and realistic.

Online support options
How Kayla’s approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building on what the person already knows about themselves. Online sessions can use that same gentle, curious stance so goals are shaped by the client’s experience and values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. In video or phone sessions Kayla can guide practical exercises and homework to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those concrete tools fit well into short check-ins or text-based messaging when someone needs quick reminders or a skills refresher.
Kayla will work together with each person to decide which approaches best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She treats the choice of method as a team decision and adjusts plans based on what helps most in real life.
Online formats offer flexibility for different situations. Video calls are useful for deeper conversation and skill teaching, phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat can support quick check-ins, and text messaging fits brief updates or ongoing encouragement. These options help therapy fit into work, school, or busy home days while keeping progress moving forward.
