Hello, I'm Kelli Holloway, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Tennessee. I specialize in providing compassionate support for individuals navigating a diverse set of challenges, such as sexual and reproductive health, chronic illnesses (including HIV/AIDS), perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, grief and loss, complex trauma, depression and anxiety, relationship dynamics, and LGBTQIA+ affirming care. My approach is deeply client-centered; I believe you are the expert on your life. I offer attuned collaboration and practical tools to foster healing, self-discovery, and empowerment in a safe, affirming, and individualized therapeutic environment.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The prospect of starting therapy can be daunting, but you don't need to embark on it alone. I provide a compassionate and affirming environment where your narrative is respected and your objectives are central. I am committed to walking alongside you, offering support as you navigate trauma, life transitions, or emotional pain on your path to healing and genuine self-connection.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths as a psychotherapist are rooted in my trauma-informed and deeply client-centered approach. I bring expertise in diverse and often complex concerns, including sexual and reproductive health, chronic illness (HIV/AIDS), perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and complex trauma. A significant strength is my commitment to providing affirming and inclusive care. With over 8 years in the mental health field, I leverage extensive real-world experience to empower clients to heal, build resilience, and foster authentic self-connection within a supportive, nonjudgmental space.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I support individuals facing trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, perinatal mood disorders, or interpersonal and identity-related stressors. My clients often seek an affirming and understanding therapeutic space, particularly those in the LGBTQIA+ communities or living with HIV/AIDS. They are committed to healing, building resilience, and fostering a deeper connection with themselves, guided by their own goals within a nonjudgmental environment. Leveraging 8 years of mental health experience and advanced training in EMDR and Brainspotting, I provide trauma-informed, client-centered therapy. I utilize diverse, evidence-based modalities to promote emotional healing, self-discovery, and overall wellness through individual and group services.

I loved my meeting with Kelli. I have had a few therapist previously and can say that Kelli has made me feel the most comfortable. She is warm, humorous, real, and solution oriented. I will definitely be scheduling more sessions with her.

She was very easy to talk to and I felt she is genuine when she says she wants to get to know me and help with my issues.

I appreciate her approach to my therapy! It’s not forced or opinionated, it’s guiding and that’s exactly what I feel I need!
