About the artist

Hi! I’m Kay (they/them).
I’m an artist and somatic therapist creating work that explores emotion, identity, and the deeper layers of human experience.

My practice includes “soul portraits”—intuitive, personalized drawings created through conversation, attunement, and embodied awareness. Rooted in trauma-informed and somatic principles, these pieces are less about physical likeness and more about reflecting how you feel, what you carry, and what wants to be seen. The process itself is collaborative and often experienced as both creative and therapeutic.

Alongside this work, I create original paintings and drawings that stand on their own—pieces that emerge from my internal world and artistic process, available for collection. Across both practices, I’m interested in what lives beneath the surface and how it can be expressed, witnessed, and transformed through art.

Testimonials 〰️

  • “My first session with Kayla was truly a one-of-a-kind, remarkable experience. She is highly intuitive, honest, and most importantly, she is compassionate and takes great care to facilitate an enlightening and positive experience. She truly made me feel "seen," not only with the soul painting which she showed to me at the end of the session, but also throughout the entire experience. I can't overstate how comfortable I felt opening up to her, and it's all thanks to her thoughtful guidance and empathy. I would absolutely recommend a soul painting session with Kayla to anyone and everyone!”

  • It was an experience and a half. So much deeper than I thought I was getting myself into. It turned out to be like an emotional snapshot of not only my past, but where I am now and what's blocking me from moving to the next stage. It's really a powerful experience, and Kayla is here to make it enjoyable… I couldn't recommend it enough. It's quite a transformative experience.

  • Kayla is so gentle and supportive. Her offering is so unique. She is able to touch such deep places in a gentle way. Her dialogue with me was so thoughtful and she is so present throughout the process. I go to therapy regularly and I found this session with Kayla as a pleasant surprise to uncover different facets of myself. At the end of the process I was left with a beautifully created image that encompassed our conversation. I would highly recommend working with Kayla to uncover issues/trauma in a gentler way. You can also feel supported in knowing she is receptive to places you're not ready to explore yet. The hour spent with Kayla has been so valuable for me. I look forward to working with her some more!

  • Kayla helped me feel open and at home in the process of this very vulnerable practice. I could feel her intuition working as she asked questions and listened intently to form this deep representation of me. Kayla’s portrayal of my soul definitely struck a chord and I would recommend her to anyone interested in learning more about themselves through a unique modality.

  • Working with Kayla feels like working with a therapist and intuitive healer in one. Plus you walk away with a special and personal portrait. She has a very comforting energy and was able to help me articulate and feel things that I've been unable to do through other channels. Definitely recommend working with Kayla, especially if you are feeling mentally or emotionally stuck.

  • Our session with Kayla was insightful and transformative. We were able to spot overlooked emotions and issues in our relationship dynamic which have led to us proactively working towards them. I see our session as a pivotal point towards a positive relationship.
