LMHC, 17 years of experience
Hi, I’m Christine Williams-Kelly, a licensed therapist dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and emotional resilience. I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and major life transitions. Through a compassionate and practical approach, I support clients in understanding their patterns, building healthier connections, and creating more fulfilling lives. My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and insight, helping you move from surviving to thriving.
In our first session together, clients can expect a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where they can begin sharing their story at their own pace. I’ll ask questions to better understand what brings you to therapy, your current challenges, and any goals you hope to work toward. We’ll explore key aspects of your emotional, mental, and social well-being, and begin identifying what supports or strengths you already have in place. Most importantly, this session is about building a sense of trust and comfort, so you feel safe and supported as we begin your journey toward healing and growth.
One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my ability to create a calm, compassionate, and judgment-free space where clients feel truly seen and heard. I bring both clinical expertise and genuine empathy to each session. I’m skilled at helping clients untangle complex emotions, identify patterns that may be holding them back, and find practical steps toward healing. My background in crisis intervention also allows me to stay grounded and supportive during difficult conversations, helping clients feel safe even when facing life’s most overwhelming moments.
I am best positioned to serve individuals of all ages who are experiencing emotional distress, major life transitions, or mental health crises and are seeking compassionate, strengths-based support. With over 16 years of experience in behavioral health, I bring a calm, stabilizing presence to clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or grief. My background in crisis intervention and community-based care allows me to support those who may feel overwhelmed or disconnected, and help them build resilience, hope, and practical tools for lasting change. I especially connect with those who are ready to rediscover their inner strength and take meaningful steps toward healing and recovery.
I regularly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice to help clients recognize and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier beliefs, and build effective coping skills. It's a structured, goal-oriented approach that I tailor to each client's needs, often combining it with other methods like mindfulness or trauma-informed care for a more holistic treatment.
I use Strengths-Based Therapy to help clients recognize and build on their existing strengths, rather than focusing solely on problems. This approach fosters confidence, resilience, and motivation by highlighting what’s working well in a client’s life. I often integrate it with other modalities like CBT to support goal-setting, boost self-esteem, and empower clients to navigate challenges using their own inner resources.
