My approach is person centered, and combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and solution focused therapy principles. All treatment plans are tailored to meet your individual and specific needs.
First steps are often the hardest, but with courage and determination, all things are possible. When you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Kelley listens carefully. She provides tools, suggestions, worksheets and articles to help me focus on whatever seems to be the most needed in any given time frome. She checks in during the week between sessions. She is always on time.
