Zaya Kuykendall

I am from Los Angeles, CA and have worked with kids and families for several years in school and clinical settings. I love being a therapist for kids and families who is dedicated to helping families build stronger, more connected relationships that support long-term well-being. I am passionate about creating a space where children and adults can better understand one another and grow together across both their similarities and differences.
