Hi, I'm Kelley Kramer, a licensed professional counselor serving adults in Texas, Ohio, and Michigan. I help people work through anxiety, life transitions, relationship struggles, chronic stress, and mind-body symptoms using Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, CBT, and somatic approaches. My style is warm, collaborative, and curious, helping clients better understand the patterns that keep them stuck and reconnect with their strengths. For clients who desire it, I also offer Christian counseling that thoughtfully integrates faith into the therapeutic process.

Renita Bingham

Renita Bingham

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Circle of Life Wellness Services, where I provide compassionate, whole-person care for adults and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. My work focuses on supporting people through emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the many adjustments that come with different seasons of life.

I have a special interest in women’s mental health and maternal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustments, caregiving stress, burnout, and balancing personal needs with family, relationships and professional responsibilities. I also support clients coping with grief and loss, life changes, and feeling “stuck” or disconnected from themselves.

At Circle of Life, I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and seen. My goal is to walk alongside you as you move toward balance, clarity, and emotional wellness—at your own pace.
