Khaila Zherine
Khaila Zherine became a therapist because she recalls many times in her teen years where she needed the words to comfort her friends or the experience she has now to be the person that could help them identify what they were going through, and how to get through it. It's that whole idea of 'be the person you needed growing up'. She says without a doubt that this is her life's calling. Some people are talented at sports, in the arts, or science- Khaila Zherine is talented at working with and understanding humans.
Everyone deserves peace, grace, happiness, and fulfillment. Life is so short and we spend so much of it fighting uphill battles because we weren't born with the tools we needed to survive through life- through trauma, break ups, and changes in our world that happened too fast.
Let's make Life something we look back at with warmth and love.
The knitty-gritty of it all is that Khaila Zherine specializes in areas of depression, anxiety, and complex trauma (to name a few- she prefers to say she specializes in being human). Specific, traditional, modalities Khaila Zherine has utilized extensively include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Person Centered therapy, the Gestalt approach, somatic therapy, and trauma-informed approaches. She excels working with young adults, transitional stages/ages, individuals dealing with anger, trauma, depression, and anxiety.
The Tree Method focuses on helping people be people. Life happens and we are often given little to no tools to help navigate it. The Tree Method takes you as you are and helps you build skills that are applicable to your unique journey, support your growth, and helps you continue to build the skills you need to be successful.
I use the Tree method to help instill in each client that they've got what they need inside of them- sometimes they just need help finding it, and that's what we're here for!
Life is a balance of finding out how much you can give without losing yourself- with the Tree Method, we can find that balance together.
Jenna
While some clinicians hold a PhD, Jenna brings what she calls a “PhDo”—a depth of wisdom earned through lived experience. Her path to becoming a transformational coach was forged not in academic halls, but through the fires of personal healing from severe trauma and addiction.
Thirteen years ago, Jenna was deeply entrenched in heroin addiction and other substance use, homeless and without hope. Neither she nor her family imagined a future where she could live, let alone thrive. Today, she is living proof of what’s possible when healing is pursued with courage, support, and spiritual depth.
Jenna’s transformation began after a near-death experience that marked the beginning of her recovery. In her first six months of sobriety, she faced the overwhelming challenge of psychosis—an intense and disorienting period that became the crucible for deep change. During this time, she was introduced to powerful healing practices including Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), cognitive restructuring, Socratic questioning, and core belief work. But it was her spiritual awakening—her deepening connection to something greater than herself—that gave her the strength to keep going.
Spirituality became the heartbeat of her healing process. Jenna leaned into practices that nurtured this connection: meditation, intuitive listening, surrender, and faith in forces beyond the material world. She believes that healing is not only a psychological process, but also a spiritual one—one that requires both discipline and grace.
Jenna does this work because she intimately understands the pain of hopelessness and the loneliness of trying to heal alone. For over ten years, she has walked alongside others on their healing journeys, offering compassionate, grounded coaching that draws from evidence-based tools and the guiding power of spirit. Her approach is both deeply human and soulfully informed—rooted in the belief that true transformation is possible for anyone.
