About Kyla
Kyla Sorenne is an ACA counsellor with 15 years of experience supporting people through tough life events. She works with stress, anxiety, addiction and grief, and helps people find ways to cope when life changes feel overwhelming. She has spent many years working with trauma, panic, eating and substance issues, and supporting people who hear voices.
Kyla is completing a master's degree and holds Level 4 membership of the Australian Counsellors Association, which includes the ability to offer clinical supervision to other counsellors.
Background and approach
Her background includes Buddhist psychology and meditation practices. She is also a Level 2 trauma-informed yoga teacher with 18 years of teaching experience, and offers breathing exercises drawn from pranayama for people whose nervous systems are dysregulated. In sessions she uses a mix of practical talking approaches and experiential work.
That can mean exploring emotions, practising grounding and breathing techniques, and working on small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and cravings. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy where helpful, alongside ACT and attachment-informed ideas. Kyla aims for clear, down-to-earth conversations.
She helps people set small goals and build everyday skills they can use between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions, then working through them to improve emotional regulation and connection. It helps people who feel stuck in painful emotional patterns or who have trouble understanding intense feelings.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking action towards chosen values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and people struggling with avoidance or unhelpful habits.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, and supports clients to recognise and change those patterns in everyday life. This approach can help with abandonment, attachment concerns and the effects of early care experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kyla will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they choose which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can be adapted as needs change over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face feeling, phone calls can fit into short breaks, and chat or messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practise skills between meetings.
