Hello, I’m Kelly, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with nearly 20 years of experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, and depression. Throughout my career, my approach has remained rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel truly heard and respected. Together, we will focus on understanding what's weighing on you, reframing unhelpful patterns, and building practical tools to support your emotional well-being and confidence.
In our first session together, we’ll take time to get to know one another and begin building a strong, comfortable connection. We’ll review background information, discuss what brought you to therapy, and explore what you hope to gain from our work. Everything always moves at a pace that feels right for you.
Clients often share that they feel immediately accepted, cared for, and free from judgment in our sessions. I deeply value the dignity, worth, and individuality of every person with whom I work. My approach balances a deeply supportive, respectful atmosphere with a grounded, practical focus on your personal growth and forward progress.
I best support adults navigating anxiety, stress, depression, anger, self-esteem, or relationship challenges. You may feel stuck or overwhelmed and are looking for practical strategies to feel more balanced and fulfilled. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan centered on your goals. Through clear milestones, collaborative work, and consistent practice, we will work toward meaningful, lasting progress at a pace that feels right for you.

For those desiring a faith-based approach, I integrate Christian principles with supportive counseling to help you find healing, growth, and guidance through a biblical worldview. Together, we can incorporate scripture, prayer, and spiritual values at your comfort level to address life's challenges, nurture your identity in Christ, and cultivate a deep sense of peace and restoration.
With nearly 20 years of experience using Solution-Focused Therapy, I help clients look forward rather than getting stuck in past problems. Instead of solely focusing on what's wrong, we’ll work together to identify your strengths, clarify what you want your future to look like, and find practical, manageable steps to get you there. This empowering, goal-oriented approach is designed to build momentum, unlock your existing resilience, and help you create meaningful change quickly.
With almost 20 years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I've seen firsthand how it helps clients quiet depressive thoughts and find relief from anxiety. Together, we’ll explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. We'll work collaboratively to gently shift unhelpful patterns, helping you feel more at ease, reduce daily stress, and regain a sense of balance.
With almost 20 years of experience using a Person-Centered approach, I provide a safe, supportive space where you can truly be yourself. I offer genuine empathy, understanding, and acceptance so you can explore your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Together, we’ll work toward deeper self-awareness, healing, and a renewed sense of your own worth—making this approach especially helpful if you are navigating low self-esteem, depression, or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself.

I wanted a Christian-oriented therapist, and her bio seemed to reflect this. I found her to be easy to talk to. I felt she elicited a fair history of my reason for seeking counseling. Kelly was warm and easygoing as well as goal-directed in her approach.
