Shayla Pattillo finds joy in serving people and regards it as a privilege to walk alongside individuals as they face life’s difficulties and move toward brighter days. She approaches therapy with warmth and respect, recognizing that life at times can feel overwhelming, isolating, and painful.

Shayla uses a blend of approaches – including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused strategies, and Adlerian techniques – to help clients strengthen their inner voice, build confidence, and reconnect with a sense of abundant life. She supports change by listening attentively, asking thoughtful questions, and sharing practical information that clients can apply between sessions.

She brings three years of clinical experience and has worked in a variety of counseling and educational roles, supporting individuals and families through many concerns. Shayla works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, self-esteem struggles, depression, addictions, LGBT-related issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating disorders, parenting challenges, anger management, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Shayla is a licensed professional counselor in Texas and is committed to hearing each person’s story. She hopes to have the opportunity to make a small but meaningful difference in each client’s journey.
