As a licensed therapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal dynamics with compassionate, personalized care.
I offer a welcoming, affirming therapeutic environment that honors diverse experiences and identities. My approach is particularly attuned to supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, young adults, and those experiencing life transitions, workplace stress, and relationship complexities.
Drawing from extensive clinical expertise, I focus on empowering clients to develop self-love, improve communication, overcome social anxiety, and rediscover personal purpose. Whether you're struggling with grief, relationship issues, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.
My therapeutic style integrates evidence-based practices to help you build resilience, process challenging emotions, and create meaningful personal growth. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and am dedicated to creating a supportive, non-judgmental space for healing.

I have only had one session with Kelly. The meeting was moved a time or two but she was prompt and professional in looking for an alternate time to meet. She is warm, caring, informative, and a good listener. I hope to continue having such positive sessions with Kelly.

I've never had a therapist that called me out and connected with me like Kelly. I was dismissive about therapy before cause I never could find someone that I could talk to but that changed with Kelly. Highly recommend

Kelly has been helping me recover from an abusive relationship with a parent, which led me to go no-contact with this parent. I feel that Kelly completely understands my situation, and I do appreciate her guidance through the different challenges that I have faced since making this decision. I would highly recommend her to anyone trying to heal from an abusive relationship.

Written on Nov 29, 2023 after therapy with Kelly for 4 months on issues concerning anger management
Kelly is empathic warm and kind. She is very good at maintaining boundaries and creating a healthy and safe space for me to work out my own struggles in a vulnerable way. She is incrid trustworthy and has never once said or done anything questionable. I have had a string of bad therapists and she is such a breathe of fresh air compared to them. So caring but still professional. I honestly didn't know this combo was possible. When I begin my graduate work I want to be half the therapist she is. She is really the top quality.

Patient and caring.
Written on May 28, 2023 after therapy with Kelly for 2 weeks on issues concerning grief
I absolutely love Kelly. She actually takes the time to listen to me and is never "going through the motions" as I've experienced with other therapists. She also has a different approach to having me think about things, which I love. I can't recommend her enough.

Kelly is such a caring soul. It can be hard to find a therapist you connect with and we connected right off the bat. Her ability to listen and reframe situations has been invaluable. Her greatest strength, in my opinion, is her genuine nature.

Kelly is very easy to talk to. You'll need more than 30 minutes as the conversation starts flowing then next thing you know the clock has run out. I feel like she is more of a friend than a therapist in the few short weeks that we have met.
