K&G Counseling

Cheyla Ferguson, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPCA), was born and raised in White House, Tennessee. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychological Sciences from Western Kentucky University in 2024 and went on to complete her Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the same university in 2026. Her academic training, combined with her clinical experience, has shaped her passion for supporting individuals through meaningful and lasting emotional growth.

At K&G, Cheyla primarily works with pre-teens, adolescents, and young adults (ages 10-25) who are navigating a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges. She has experience supporting clients with concerns such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depression, grief, disordered eating, and difficulties related to identity, relationships, and life transitions. Cheyla understands that these stages of life can feel overwhelming and, at times, isolating. She believes that healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood.

Cheyla is deeply committed to creating a therapeutic environment that is safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental. She strives to build genuine, trusting relationships with her clients, recognizing that a strong therapeutic connection is the foundation for meaningful change. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs and experiences.

Cheyla utilizes evidence-based treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Adlerian theory, while primarily working from an Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) perspective. She is passionate about helping clients deepen their emotional awareness, process difficult experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping and relating to themselves and others. Through this work, Cheyla aims to empower her clients to move toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and overall well-being.
