Kelly Cowan

My communication style

I set an easy-going and friendly tone in sessions and hope that clients can feel that. It is hard to talk about our emotions, so your comfort level with me is one of the most important things in helping you reach your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do for a career. I always knew it would be in a helping capacity. Throughout my early adulthood I discovered that no matter what my job was people felt comfortable opening up to me about their struggles. In my early 30's I decided to go back to school to become a therapist. It feels natural for me.

My goals for you

You will meet your treatment goals with me and know where you are in your journey because we will talk about them on a regular basis and determine what is working and what isn't. You are fully involved in setting those goals, you are the expert in your life, not me. This is a team effort, and I want to help you figure out what is and isn't working.

Our first session

In our first session, I will ask you a variety of questions about your life, both early life and current. I am also a very open individual and can answer questions about myself if that helps you feel more comfortable. My goal is that by the end of the first session, you feel ready to start opening up. I know that is hard and can take some time.
