Layla Hendricks, LCSW
About me
Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been working with teens, adults and families for over 10 years. My passion is in helping others. I will provide a safe, calm, space for you to share your story. I feel privileged to be on the listening end of the therapeutic relationship while supporting you in the next steps in your journey of life. I will provide compassion and empathy along the way as you work towards your personal goals. I want you to feel comfortable talking to me about what has brought you to my page. Therapy can be scary due to the unknown. Therapy is also a wonderful experience when you are ready to take that next step and put in the work. During our time together, we will develop a treatment plan that fits to your needs. I will provide you with activities and direction that will enable you to create change, facilitate growth and practice new skills. We will work together to get you to a place to meet treatment goals and feel comfortable and able to move forward again on your own. I look forward to sharing in your story and hope to be able to walk beside you on this journey!

She listens to me concerns well and doesn’t judge

Layla always brings me back to center. I have a very high stress job and some of the things she has helped me with have allowed me to improve my day to day life immensely. I highly recommend her!

Amazing

Layla is truly the best! I’ve had multiple therapist before her and honestly none of them even come close to her. She’s such a good listener and really focuses on your wants and needs. She’s changed my life for the better:)

I love how real and upfront Layla is! She tells it like it is, respectfully, and certainly has the greatest respect and advice a therapist can give. She is so down to earth and always make me feel at my most comfortable feeling to be able to talk to her about anything. I love how involved she is with my feelings and making sure that I am doing okay if she doesn't hear from me in a few days. I hope I can keep her as my therapist for a long time! I would hate to start from the beginning with someone else.

Layla is great at being able to find things to focus on even when I’m not quite sure what I need! She’s so great at listening, validating and even nudging when needed! She’s also super flexible and understanding!
