Great to meet you!

Hello, my name is Darlene Kelly. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that first step! I have over 23 years of experience. I have experience working with single parents, single individuals, married couples, elderly adults, teens, and adolescents. I have helped many people work through trials and tribulations that they have experienced in life. I am an open-minded listener who gives the client a voice to express themselves during therapy sessions. I have done a great deal of work with people, experienced Depression, and Anxiety. I have also worked with people who have and are experiencing life stressors.

My approach to therapy

Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. I will listen to you and tailor therapy based on your individual needs. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey. It’s important to me that we communicate openly and honestly and that you feel respected and heard in our relationship. I’ll be there to listen to you and support you along the way.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, clients can expect me to give them an open floor in a nonjudgmental environment to freely express themselves. I give you the opportunity where you’ll be able to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. I will listen while you, the client, tell me about your reason for coming to therapy and what you would like your life to look like once you have completed therapy.
