My name is Kayla LaPier, I am an Associate Clinical Licensed Social Worker of NC and a Licensed Master Social Worker in SC. I see clients in NC and FL via telehealth. I use my lived experience as a queer, neurodivergent person to create my intersectional, person-centered approach to therapy.

Specializations and Approach

My work is anchored in principles of neuroaffirmative, LGBTQIA+ affirmative, trauma-informed, and BIPOC allied and affirmative. I understand that life can throw unexpected challenges our way, and sometimes it feels like our own minds are working against us. That's why I'm here—to offer a supportive and understanding space where you can feel heard, validated, and empowered to overcome obstacles.

Areas of Expertise

My expertise lies in supporting individuals facing a range of mental health concerns, including but not limited to:

-Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)

-Trauma and PTSD

-LGBTQIA+ identity exploration and affirmation

-Neurodivergent experiences, including ADHD and autism spectrum disorders

-Anxiety and depression

-Substance abuse and addiction

Client-Centered Approach

In our sessions, I prioritize your unique needs, preferences, and goals. Whether you're seeking a safe space to process trauma, explore your identity, manage symptoms of anxiety or depression, or address challenges related to neurodiversity, I'm here to walk alongside you on your journey to healing and self-discovery.

Together, We Can

Life is full of ups and downs, but you don't have to navigate it alone. Together, we'll celebrate your victories, work through setbacks, and chart a path toward a brighter, more fulfilling future. If you're ready to take the first step toward positive change, I'm here to help.
