About me
As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-compassion, overcome interpersonal challenges, and rediscover personal strength. I have extensive experience addressing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions.
My therapeutic practice focuses on empowering individuals to build healthier relationships, with themselves and others. I'm particularly passionate about supporting women through unique challenges, including workplace stress, relationship dynamics, and personal growth journeys. Whether you're struggling with social anxiety, processing past trauma, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I offer a compassionate, collaborative approach.
I believe healing happens through genuine connection and personalized support. My goal is to create a safe, affirming space where you can explore your experiences, develop resilience, and move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Layla is excellent at listening. She has a way of making look at things differently, that makes me feel better. I would highly recommend.

Layla is a healer and is easy to talk with. She asks good questions, and directed me to focus on reading material at hand, to focus better on self care.

Layla is an incredible therapist who helped me through many difficult issues. She easily created a safe & supportive environment. She is very responsive & flexible with scheduling. You can tell she genuinely cares and wants to help others. This was my first experience with therapy and I’m so glad I was matched with her.

Layla is the best. Someone else said it best when they said “talking with her is like talking with a friend I’ve known for years.” I look forward to our sessions every week!

I have been working with Layla for a few weeks now. All I can say is wow. She was able to show me comfort and a safe space, that changed my views on therapy in general. She is wonderful!

Layla is INCREDIBLE. I’ve only had a handful of sessions with her so far, but I immediately (and continually) felt so comfortable with and welcomed by her. She is respectful, insightful, and extremely compassionate and understanding. I can’t say enough positive things about her! Definitely would recommend her without a doubt. She especially is talented in working with my anxieties and providing multiple perspectives and approaches to managing it. :)
