Kayla Sterling, LCSW, CSW

Kayla Sterling is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wyoming with 11 years of clinical experience. She has worked in community mental health settings and with people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, parenting strains, relationship problems, grief, and sleep or eating difficulties.

She has treated many diagnoses and presenting problems across the age spectrum during her career. That experience includes work with PTSD, generalized anxiety, OCD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and substance use concerns. Kayla also has experience offering individual therapy, group work, and therapeutic interventions for co-occurring problems.

Her approach draws from client-centered methods along with cognitive behavioral tools and acceptance-based ideas. She aims to listen first, then help people try small, practical steps that match their daily life and goals. Sessions tend to focus on building coping skills and clearer communication about what matters most at home.

Kayla also uses attachment-focused perspectives to look at relationship patterns and how early connections affect present stress. Dialectical behavior ideas can appear when people need skills for emotional regulation and clearer boundaries. These methods are combined to fit the situation rather than follow a single template.

People who are juggling parenting pressures, relationship strain, or recovery from trauma often describe wanting straightforward strategies and steady support. Kayla offers that kind of hands-on work, helping people sort immediate problems and set realistic steps forward.
