Kelli Pinion, LCMHC
About me
As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-compassion, improve communication, and overcome challenges like social anxiety, isolation, and life transitions.
Drawing from a faith-informed perspective, I provide compassionate guidance for those seeking to align their personal growth with their spiritual beliefs. My therapeutic work focuses on addressing stress, grief, self-esteem challenges, and caregiver burnout with empathy and practical strategies.
I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their inner strengths, work through difficult emotions, and develop healthier patterns of thinking and relating. Whether you're struggling with body image, feeling stuck in life, or seeking deeper personal understanding, I'm here to walk alongside you with genuine care and professional expertise.
