LPC, 22 years of experience
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.

My first session with Kelly exceeded my expectations. I initially planned to keep things light, but Kelly’s warm presence and genuine energy made me feel completely at ease—like I was confiding in a trusted friend. Because of that comfort, I found myself opening up and releasing some of the emotional weight I’ve been carrying. This session was a powerful and encouraging start to my healing journey, and I truly look forward to continuing therapy with her.

Kelly was extremely patient with me, especially since I was having connectivity issues with my phone. She also helped me to think outside the box when it comes to certain situations.

When talking to her it felt like a talking to a friend who you could trust and give information too without judgment. She’s warm and funny and ensures your appointments are personal and understanding.
