Clients say this provider is
I am a licensed mental health therapist and have been practicing for over 22 years. Quality of care over quantity has always been my goal and desire. I enjoy seeing people grow and flourish in life by developing positive energy and motivation from sessions. I have had extensive training in CBT and Trauma Focused CBT. Working with people from different cultural backgrounds as well as age categories excites me and helps me to expand my knowledge on how to better be of assistance to others. You can find additional information on my website at www.statewideserenitycounseling.com.
The initial session is designed to focus on building rapport, gathering information and concerns, and discussing in detail confidentiality and reasons for seeking therapy services.
I am a very empathetic individual, care about my clients and am motivated to help them move towards their goals and living the life that are wanting to live.
I am enthusiastic to help clients suffering from depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, internalizing thoughts and behaviors and anyone who has suffered from a history of trauma. I enjoy helping others to find solutions to improve mental health and to develop a positive outcome.

I am a certified cognitive behavioral therapist and have been using this method for years. It is practiced in sessions by identifying primary concerns and needs, incorporating problem solving skills, effective communication skills and social functioning skills to identify connections between thoughts, feelings and actions.
I have provided Christian based therapy by applying methods and techniques that are Bible based practices to address internalizing concerns and disruptions in activities of daily living.
Couples counseling practices are used to address relationship barriers, communication patterns and techniques using various assignments and mocking practices in session. Couples counseling also entails identifying love languages, problem solving skills, reflection, and various activities to increase relationships building techniques.
I am a certified TF-CBT therapist and focus on the 8 components of TF-CBT which are addressing assessment and engagement, psychoeducation, relaxation, parenting, affective modulation, cognitive coping, trauma narrative and safety.
I mainly utilize person centered therapy where I focus on genuineness and congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathetic responses as well as guidance and self awareness.

This was a good first session! Very to-the-point and immediately useful. I chose Kelly because she has good reviews and I wanted someone who hopefully relates to my faith and experiences. I'm looking forward to speaking again.
