Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Kelly Solis and I am a bilingual Latina Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in New York. I provide individual therapy to adults experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief or who are having difficulty adjusting to life transitions. I also provide support to those trying to manage daily stressors related to family dynamics, work stress, relationship issues, etc. I graduated from Lehman College in 2016 and have been working in the social service field for 10+ years.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is client centered and strengths based. I help clients identify how certain patterns of behavior or unresolved traumas can impact one's functioning in the present. Using CBT related concepts I educate clients on how one's thoughts have the ability to influence their feelings and behaviors. For those experiencing specific stressors, together we identify problems contributing to their distress and discuss ways to improve coping, so that those stressors become more manageable

What you can expect from our first session

Whether it's your first time in therapy or you're familiar with the process, I like to meet clients where they are and guide them in creating goals that are important to them. I take pride in creating a space where clients feel heard, safe, and where judgement does not exist. I assist clients in identifying areas in their life that need improvement and then help them feel more empowered to create change and foster growth.
