Kaitlyn Power, LCSW
8+ Years Experience
Clinical Supervisor
High-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, and relational attachment for thoughtful adults (typically ages 20–39).
Former USC clinical researcher focused on relationship functioning and communication, with advanced training in psychodynamic and attachment-oriented therapy.

Warm in-person office in Playa Del Rey (90293) and secure Telehealth for all CA residents.
Kaitlyn’s approach is informed by psychodynamic training at Maple Counseling Center and clinical research at University of Southern California focused on communication, relationships, and emotional patterns. Rather than viewing life transitions as something to simply “push through,” therapy creates space to better understand how change can impact identity, self-worth, relationships, and emotional well-being.
Feeling like your worth is tied to how much you achieve, how productive you are, or how well you’re holding things together.
Overthinking decisions, second-guessing your instincts, and worrying about making the “wrong” choice.
Saying "yes" when you want to say "no," avoiding disappointment or conflict, and ending up emotionally drained.
Replaying conversations afterward, fearing tension or disconnection, and overanalyzing how others feel about you.
Therapy is about more than just having a space to vent; it’s about better understanding the deeper patterns shaping your anxiety, relationships, and sense of self. At Power Therapy, our approach is informed by Kaitlyn’s psychodynamic training at Maple Counseling Center, research at USC focused on communication and relationship patterns, and early attachment research at Kenyon College exploring how childhood experiences can shape adult relationships.
Together, we explore the thought patterns, self-pressure, and deeper emotional dynamics keeping you stuck, while building practical tools to help you feel more grounded, present, and less overwhelmed.
Anxiety can sometimes be a sign that deeper emotional patterns or unmet needs are asking for attention. The ways we learn to navigate closeness, uncertainty, and emotional safety early in life can continue to shape our relationships and anxiety as adults.
Our approach to therapy includes building awareness of how anxiety shows up in the body, helping you better understand your nervous system and recognize signs of overwhelm earlier so you can find steady ground.
Choosing a therapist is an investment in your future self. Kaitlyn brings a high level of clinical rigor and specialized experience to every session:
In addition to supervising associate therapists, Kaitlyn remains deeply engaged in ongoing learning, mentorship, and thoughtful, relationship-centered approaches to therapy.
Her work is informed by clinical research at the University of Southern California focused on communication and relationship dynamics, as well as undergraduate thesis work at Kenyon College exploring how childhood attachment patterns can shape adult relationships.
Through her psychodynamic training at Maple Counseling Center and years working with adults across Los Angeles, Kaitlyn understands the unique pressures many people face around anxiety, relationships, burnout, and the pressure to always “have it together.”
We begin by slowing things down and building awareness around how anxiety is showing up in your thoughts, relationships, emotions, and body - often in ways that may have felt automatic for a long time.
As therapy progresses, we gently explore the underlying emotional and relationship patterns contributing to anxiety, overthinking, self-pressure, or difficulty feeling fully secure in yourself and your relationships.
Over time, many clients begin to feel more grounded, more connected to themselves, and better able to navigate uncertainty, relationships, and everyday stress with greater clarity and self-trust.
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Many clients seek support when anxiety, overthinking, stress, or emotional overwhelm begin affecting their relationships, work, sleep, or overall quality of life. Therapy can also help you better understand patterns before they lead to burnout.
Therapy looks different for everyone depending on your goals and experiences. Meaningful change often unfolds gradually over time through greater self-understanding, emotional awareness, and exploring long-standing patterns within a supportive therapeutic relationship. Along the way, we also build practical tools and resilience to help you navigate anxiety, relationships, and everyday stress with greater confidence and self-awareness. As therapy evolves, some clients transition to biweekly or monthly sessions, while others continue weekly therapy as an ongoing space for support, insight, and personal growth.

Many clients are surprised by how connected and comfortable online therapy can feel. Virtual therapy can be an effective and supportive option for anxiety, stress, relationships, and emotional overwhelm, while also offering greater flexibility and convenience. All online sessions are held through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform for California residents.
Stress is often connected to a specific situation or period of pressure, while anxiety can feel more ongoing, like difficulty turning your mind off, overthinking situations long after they happen, or carrying a constant sense of worry or self-pressure. Many people experience a combination of both, and therapy can help you better understand what’s contributing to your overwhelm while building healthier ways to cope and feel more grounded.
You don’t have to figure this all out on your own. We offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation as a low-pressure space to connect, ask questions, and explore whether therapy at Power Therapy feels like the right fit for you.
