🌿 We’re happy to welcome Kaela Jackson, LAMFT to Counseling Associates for Well-Being!

Kaela believes in therapy as a journey of discovery, where you’re the expert of your own life — not being told what to do, but uncovering the answers already within you. She sees couples, families, and individuals 18+ who are navigating life transitions, relationship and identity challenges, and looking for deeper emotional awareness. 

Her approach blends Experiential Therapy (to connect with emotions that feel hidden or hard to express) with CBT tools when helpful — all wrapped in empathy, authenticity, and a sense of humor.
