More about Cayla

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hi, my name is Cayla Malter. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Missouri. I have 16 years of experience in community counseling, hospital social work, inpatient mental health care, outpatient mental health therapy, and school social work. I have been a licensed therapist since 2014. Prior to my change to the school setting in 2020, I was within a hospital/ outpatient clinic setting since 2007. I have worked with families, parents, children, and adults coping with changes in their life, separation, marriage, parenting, depression, anxiety, work/ life stress, death and grief. I love working with students in a school environment, but missed working with adults/families in the clinic setting, which is what led me to BetterHelp.

You have also taken a big step in seeking therapy by exploring the BetterHelp site. I would love to work with you. I understand talking to a therapist can be overwhelming, but I promise we will take it one step at a time. I will take your lead in communication on topics that are of concern to you or you and your partner at the time. I wish you the best and hope to work with you soon!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
