Hello, I'm Kelly Devine, a dedicated therapist with 14 years of experience, passionate about empowering individuals through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Outside of therapy, I am dedicated to ongoing professional development and staying informed about the latest research and techniques in mental health. My goal is to create a therapeutic partnership built on trust, compassion, and mutual respect, guiding you towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first session with me, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where the focus is on understanding your needs and goals. We'll start by discussing what brings you in and what you hope to achieve. I'll ask questions to get a comprehensive understanding of your background, challenges, and strengths. Together, we'll outline a plan and clarify expectations for our work together. By the end of the session, you should feel more informed and empowered about the process ahead.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider, I believe my greatest strengths lie in my ability to listen deeply and empathetically to my clients. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and emotions. Additionally, I bring a strong foundation of knowledge and experience in Substance Use Disorders, which allows me to tailor interventions and strategies that are most effective for each client's unique needs. I am dedicated to ongoing learning and growth, ensuring that I stay current with best practices and therapeutic approaches. Overall, my goal is to support and empower clients on their journey towards personal growth, healing, and positive change.
