Kelly has experience working with children, adolescents, adults, seniors, couples and families in both individual and group settings.

Kelly’s approach to therapy is unique to each individual and she believes that a solid therapeutic relationship is more important than any particular treatment approach in producing the best results in therapy. Kelly invites her clients to uncover a clearer understanding of their feelings and behaviors, and helps them to feel safe, comfortable, and to establish trust, not only with her, but with themselves. Her goal is to help her clients explore options and potential solutions and find what works for them, at their pace.
Kelly credits Accelerated Resolution Therapy with being a game changer in how she practices therapy. It allows her to help clients find relief from stress, trauma and other mental health issues in a short amount of time.
