Great to meet you!

Hello! I'm Kelly. First and foremost, thank you for being here. I know of the incredible strength it takes to look for a therapist. As a trauma survivor myself, I know how important it is to feel like you can relate to and feel safe with your therapist. I look forward to being that person for you.

My approach to therapy

What you can expect by starting your healing journey with me is a therapist who is down-to-earth, collaborative, understanding, and passionate about helping you towards your goals. I specialize in holistic therapy for trauma survivors; especially those who have experienced childhood neglect. I offer individualized trauma therapy that can include EMDR, IFS, psychodynamic, mindfulness, and Yoga Therapy.

What you can expect from me

Each of these modalities can help you to explore your past and gain insight into how trauma shows up in your daily life, learn solutions to feel safe and secure again, unlearn patterns of mistrust, hypervigilance, and negativity that no longer serve you, and regain confidence, self-worth, and the ability to put yourself first.
