About Kayla
Kayla helps children, teens, and adults understand how their brains work. As an assessment-focused clinician, she specializes in comprehensive, strengths-based assessments that bring clarity to questions about learning, development, and emotional wellbeing - and that translate into practical, actionable next steps.
Her work with children and adolescents (ages 3-18) covers a wide range of areas, including assessing and working with individuals with specific learning disorder, giftedness, intellectual disability, and autism. She also has extensive experience assessing social-emotional concerns such as anxiety disorders, including selective mutism. For adults, she provides ADHD and autism assessments designed to deliver answers that may have felt out of reach for years.
Before assessing, Kayla spent over seven years working directly in classrooms and the special education field as an educational assistant and behavioural therapist for autistic children and a range of other needs. That hands-on experience shapes everything she does. She knows what these challenges look like in real life, not just on paper, and brings that practical understanding to every assessment.
Kayla focuses exclusively on comprehensive assessments because she believes a thorough, thoughtful evaluation is the foundation for everything that follows; whether that's accessing the right supports at school, advocating for accommodations at work, or simply understanding how one's brain works a little better. A diagnosis is not a label; it's a roadmap. Her goal is to make the process feel clear, collaborative, and free of jargon, so clients leave not just with a report, but with a deeper understanding of strengths, challenges, and the path forward.
Kayla is a Registered Provisional Psychologist, and she works under supervision to provide careful, evidence-based assessments. Whether clients are seeking answers for themselves or their child, she is here to walk alongside them with curiosity, warmth, and care - and she'd love to help them find those answers.
