Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of North Carolina. I received my Masters degree from Arizona State University and have been practicing for 9 years. I believe that working together in a safe, non-judgmental environment can create space for the healing you deserve. In my early career I worked with Child Protective Services to support the reunification of children with their biological parents. I then moved to North Carolina to continue work with keeping families together that had suffered trauma and/or behavioral issues. From there, I worked as an individual therapist working with teenagers and adults. During that time, I led groups that focused on education for women who experienced anxiety on a daily basis. Prior to the Grow Therapy platform, I worked to support adults in crisis who needed immediate psychiatric support.

Hello, I am Wanda Kellyman, a dedicated and highly qualified professional specializing in mental health and personal development. My extensive qualifications include National Certified Counselor, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Board Certified Life Coach, and Mindfulness Practitioner. With these credentials, I've honed my expertise in providing transformative therapy and guidance to individuals seeking personal growth and healing. My therapeutic approach is rooted in holism and strength-based principles. I understand that each person is a complex being with interconnected aspects of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Rather than focusing solely on problems or deficits, I empower my clients by highlighting their innate strengths and resources, helping them effectively navigate life's challenges. To create a more engaging and dynamic therapeutic process, I integrate various forms of creative expression into my sessions. Through poetry, art, music, meditation, and movement, I encourage clients to explore and communicate their inner emotions and thoughts. This creative dimension not only fosters self-expression but also deepens self-awareness and introspection, leading to profound personal insights and growth. By harmonizing my certifications, experiences, and passion for holistic well-being, I strive to cultivate a supportive and compassionate environment where individuals can flourish and embark on their unique journeys of self-discovery and transformation. I firmly believe in the immense potential within each person to lead a fulfilling and purposeful life, and I am wholeheartedly committed to guiding them on that empowering path toward mental and emotional well-being. The overarching theme of my approach can be summarized in three words: Engagement, Empowerment, and Bliss. Through engagement in creative and reflective processes, clients find the power to empower themselves and ultimately achieve a state of blissful well-being.

Hi, this is Mary and welcome to my profile. Are you searching for meaningful relationships and supportive and healthy communications with others in your life? We will work on assertive communication strategies that will allow you to feel more confident when you encounter difficult situations. Tools for establishing healthy connections with others will be shared to help cultivate and attune to the quality relationships you are seeking. You will learn to identify healthy and supportive connections that are emotionally safe and honor and enhance your well-being. You will learn how to better manage symptoms of anxiety and depression and discover that choice is always offered in the context of a supportive and healthy relationship. You will learn relationship principles that allow you to define how you want to show up in relationships as well as create healthy expectations for what you wish to receive from relationships with others. Awareness of how you present to others and your ability to take responsibility for how you may impact others with whom you wish to honor and support will be explored. The value of reciprocity in relationships will be introduced and investigated. The skills you will learn in this process will allow you to be responsible for your own emotions and actions and equipped with the tools to respond respectfully to the words and actions of others regardless of their intent. Together we can identify patterns that may be holding you back from reaching your full potential in important areas of your life.
