Hi. My name is Kellie. I am here for you, period. We are all in this crazy thing called life together. I have been working with diverse populations for several years now. It might seem like everyone else has it all figured out on this planet, but they absolutely do not. We are all doing the best we can. Nobody is perfect. We learn everyday from the mistakes we make. If we didn't make mistakes, how would we grow? What you want to get out of therapy is what you will get. You are the expert in your life. I am here to help others meet their goals. My job is to promote understanding on how to use life tools in order to meet the goals you strive for. I look forward to hearing your story. Let's rock life one step at a time, together. Licensure info: Active LCSW licensure in Missouri, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Alabama. Mission: Own your own. Vision: If you don’t try, you can’t fail. Motto: “Let’s Rock life one step at a time, together.”
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
What one wants to get out of therapy is what one will get; I am just here to guide the process in a safe environment. I am as laid-back as my clients would like and can be just as structured if that is what the client prefers. This is your therapy, so what are your expectations when working with me? My job is to meet your expectations.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I dig the following practices: Individual Therapy Family Therapy Couples Counseling ACT/CBT/DBT Mindfulness Meditation Strengths Based, Solution Focused Approach Holistic Psychotherapy Motivational Interviewing Exposure Therapy Symptom Management Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Post Partum Depression, etc.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Becoming a therapist is something that was simply meant to be for my own journey. I truly dig working with people and helping others unpack their thoughts that tend to control the day-to-day. I have worked in outpatient settings, intensive outpatient settings, inpatient settings, community-based mental health, jail settings, and school environments. I’ve also worked with those who were experiencing homelessness. I enjoy working with clients who happen to have PTSD and engage in trauma therapy. I truly enjoy working with all populations and being there for whatever issues come up.
