Kyla Green, AMFT
Therapist
Kyla Green is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at Serenity Knolls, where she has been making a difference since November 2022. Personally impacted by addiction, Kyla is deeply passionate about psychotherapy and its power to help individuals heal and grow. She focuses on guiding people to reconnect with parts of themselves that may have been lost due to trauma and unhealthy coping mechanisms, such as substance use, helping them rediscover and reclaim their inherent internal goodness.
Kyla combines her strong professional skills, extensive training, and compassionate nature to support her clients at Serenity Knolls. Her kindness, insight, and wisdom empower clients to understand their values, regain their sense of agency and identity, and show up fully in their own lives. This holistic approach furthers the healing process, enabling clients to strive for a healthy, sober, independent, and sustainable lifestyle.
A native of Marin, Kyla holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology from San Francisco State University and a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of San Francisco. She has dedicated years to working with underserved populations, including a psychology traineeship at St. Vincent’s School for Boys, where she provided therapeutic support to traumatized boys. This experience honed her professional skills and fueled her passion for service and community wellness.
Kyla has also spent years supporting women in the adult entertainment industry in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district. Through relationship-centered outreach and mentorship, she connected these women to therapeutic services and community resources, reinforcing her commitment to relationships, community, and empowerment. This dedication continues to inspire her work as a therapist today.
For the past twenty years, Kyla has been a regular volunteer with youth-focused community service and social justice organizations. Her ongoing commitment to these causes reflects her dedication to fostering healthy, supportive communities and empowering individuals to live authentically and freely.
