About Kyla
Kyla Sorenne is an ACA counsellor with 15 years of clinical experience in Australia. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression and major life changes. Kyla also supports clients dealing with abandonment, attachment issues and body image concerns.
She has long experience with trauma, PTSD, panic and nervous breakdowns, and with eating and food-related difficulties. Kyla has worked with people who hear voices and with those coping with chronic illness and caregiver stress. Her background includes work with cancer-related distress and relationship separation issues.
Kyla blends practical talking work with body-based tools. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based ideas. She also uses breathing exercises she learned through pranayama study to help with a dysregulated nervous system.
Her wider skillset includes meditation coaching and trauma-informed movement practices. Kyla has taught trauma-informed yoga for many years and is training further at masters level. She is a Level 4 member of the Australian Counsellors Association and offers clinical supervision to other counsellors.
Sessions aim to clarify what matters to each person and to find small, manageable ways to shift distress. Kyla works in straightforward language and checks in about which techniques suit each client. People who prefer a mix of talking and simple somatic practices may find her style helpful.
How Kyla uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without fighting them and then choose actions that fit their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of unhelpful thinking and testing small changes in behaviour to reduce distress. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and addiction-related habits.Kyla treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She discusses what techniques suit the person's concerns, goals and day-to-day routine. Together they try methods and adjust them based on what feels practical and useful.
Session formats are not listed explicitly in her biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, drop into a shorter check-in, avoid travel time and choose quieter surroundings. Kyla also integrates breathing exercises and simple meditation coaching that translate well to an online setting, and she will explain how those practices can fit into ordinary days.
