Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected in your relationships, or worried about your child or family? Maybe you’ve been carrying stress, anxiety, grief, conflict, or painful life changes for so long that you barely recognize yourself anymore. You may have spent years trying to stay strong for everyone else while quietly struggling on your own. If so, you are not alone.

I offer a warm, compassionate, and supportive space where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what you’re going through without fear of judgment. With nearly 60 years of professional experience working with individuals, couples and families, I understand how deeply emotional pain, relationship struggles, family stress, loss, and life transitions can affect people.

I have extensive experience working with at-risk adolescents and young adults facing challenges such as self-harming behaviors, trauma, addictions, and family conflict.

I have worked successfully with adults navigating substance use concerns, chronic pain and other health difficulties, caregiver burnout, grief, various forms of loss, and major life transitions.

In addition, I work with couples facing communication difficulties, separation, infidelity, divorce and other relationship challenges, as well as families dealing with parenting stress, illness, addictions, cultural adaptation, and significant life changes. I am also able to support families with young children who are experiencing developmental difficulties, health challenges, or acting-out behaviors and I provide pre-marital counseling for couples who are about to tie the knot. Throughout our work together, I strive to help clients build greater self-awareness, strengthen relationships, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward a greater sense of balance, connection, and emotional well-being.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Florida and Ohio with 14 years of direct counseling experience. Supporting and guiding clients through difficult traumas and life's challenges in a safe and nonjudgmental environment is what I strive for.

My goal is to assist children, adolescents, and adults to reach their highest potential and to help couples and families live more harmonious and joyful lives together.

My passion is to support, uplift and encourage those in my community. Let's work together to start living a better-quality life one session at a time.

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.
