Kayla Fafard, LICSW

About me

I am licensed in Massachusetts with 6 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I am certified in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, an approach that is proven effective for those that have experienced trauma. I have worked for many years with children, teens and their families to support through challenges. I currently work with teens in the middle school setting. Teens have so much hope and resilience. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
