About me

As a licensed therapist in WA State, Oregon, and Texas I bring nearly two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through diverse life challenges. My approach is deeply personalized, honoring each client's unique journey and identity. I specialize in addressing complex emotional landscapes, including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and grief.

My therapeutic practice centers on creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I'm committed to understanding the nuanced intersections of individual experiences, offering tailored guidance that respects each person's cultural background, personal values, and emotional needs.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help clients navigate challenging transitions, heal from past wounds, and develop healthier communication and coping strategies. Whether you're confronting workplace stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy, expertise, and genuine care.

she's amazing

Written on Apr 01, 2026 after therapy with Kelley for 5 months on issues concerning relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, and coping with life changes

Kelley has been amazing in our time together and has helped me with all my issues and more to find myself once again. I was in a bad spot when I first met Kelley but during the time we spent together, I not only found myself again but feel I have developed into an even better person. She is always there when needed and always willing to schedule around my schedule when we can't meet for our scheduled time. She is not only professional but also very personable which I have found to be extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend her as a therapist to anyone because she has been wonderful for me to fix everything and get myself back on track to where I need to be in life.
