Kyla Duhart LCSW, Cedar Ridge Counseling
In my many years as a therapist, I have learned and effectively used a variety of therapeutic approaches and techniques. However, most, importantly, is my relationship with the client. I strive to work as a partner to help my clients build on the strengths and skills they already have. My emphasis with many clients is the use of Solution-based therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, both relatively structured, short-term treatment. However, I also have a number of clients where a more indepth approach is used.

My experience includes work with teenagers, adults and the elderly, seeing them as individuals or couples. Issues I treat include depression, anxiety, relationship and marital problems, work related issues, and issues of fertility, aging, chronic pain and grief.
Initially, my career was as a Masters level Occupational Therapist both in Physical Medicine and Psychiatry. I learned about chronic pain and long-term disability, working both with the patient and the family.

However, after 10 years, I found dealing with people’s issues more directly was my most important skill. I went back to school at University of Michigan and got another Masters in Clinical Social Work. Since that time, I have worked in a variety of psychiatric clinical settings, including in-patient psychiatry, out-patient settings to adults and the elderly.

I look forward to meeting with you and working together on your needs and concerns.
