Hi! My name is Kelley Flanagan and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the beautiful state of California. Southern California has always been home to me and I received my education from San Diego State University. I love supporting individuals and families of all ages who are looking to make changes to live their most self fulfilled lives.
During our first session we will have the opportunity to get to know each other and identify goals to work on during our sessions together. This will be a great time to share what is bringing you to therapy.
I have had the opportunity to work with diverse populations who have experienced a various amount of trauma or hardships within their personal lives. These experiences allow me to use a culturally sensitive lens while following my client's lead, to embark on their journey of self healing.
Helping those who need to reduce stress in their life to life a more balanced lifestyle. Supporting parents with understanding healthy ways to connect and form positive bonds with their children. Supporting individuals in understanding childhood impact on present behaviors and relational patterns.
Helping to understand how thoughts are impacting behaviors and decisions. Being able to recognize what kind of thoughts we are having helps us to reduce emotions or behaviors we are not wanting to experience.
Supporting individuals in identifying, understanding and processing traumas. Using a culturally sensitive lens with the understanding that traumas impact everyone differently.
Helping individuals to understand their life story and create the ending that they desire. Identifying what "problems" are impacting your behaviors and emotions in your life.
