About Jamayla

Jamayla Gray is a licensed professional counselor (LPCC) practicing in California who integrates evidence-based methods to support people facing a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

With six years of clinical experience she draws from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help clients build skills for mood regulation, anxiety management, and improving relationships.

Her work includes focus on concerns like addictions, ADHD, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and stress, along with issues around intimacy, self-esteem, and career transitions. Jamayla emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can explore thoughts and feelings openly.

She incorporates attachment-informed perspectives and client-centered principles to tailor interventions to each individual’s strengths and goals. Whether addressing communication problems, codependency, or coping with major life changes, she aims to empower clients to take actionable steps toward a more satisfying life.

Sessions may also address specialized topics such as LGBT matters, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, and relationship dynamics. Jamayla accepts international clients and offers flexible session formats to fit different lifestyles and needs.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and commit to actions that move them toward a meaningful life, while also teaching practical ways to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships, supporting improved connection and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and the therapist works collaboratively to determine which methods best match a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This process may involve trying techniques from different approaches and adjusting the plan as progress and priorities emerge.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and life demands. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and to fit counseling into busy routines while allowing the therapist to apply ACT, CBT, or EFT-informed strategies in ways that suit each client’s circumstances.
