If you’re looking for a space where you can let your guard down, be yourself, and feel genuinely supported, I may be the therapist and safe space you’ve been looking for. I offer therapy grounded in warmth, comfort, and realness. We can laugh, cry, or simply process life together. I meet you where you are, without judgment or pressure to have it all figured out. Healing doesn’t have to be rushed, and we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we’ll focus on helping you be gentler with yourself, see your value more clearly, and learn how to nurture yourself in ways that allow you to grow, not just survive. I’m Jayla Wells, a licensed professional counselor supporting women who are navigating growth, identity, and healing in this season of life. I’m pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling & Psychological Studies with a concentration in biblical counseling, blending clinical understanding with spiritual wisdom to support the whole you. Therapy with me is warm, affirming, and real. If you’re ready to begin your healing journey, go ahead and schedule your session today.

03 · What happens next
Jayla practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Jayla's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Jayla at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Jayla is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Jayla.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Practical details
05 · Provenance
Jayla's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 6 Nov 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.
Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Jayla. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
