Greetings, My name is Kellie, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California with 15 years of experience working in the mental health field. I am passionate about helping individuals overcome obstacles so they may live their best life.
My approach
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychoanalytic, and solution-focused therapy techniques. Ultimately, I will collaborate with you to customize our dialog and treatment plan to best fit your unique and specific needs.
My focus
I work with a wide range of clients who express concerns in the areas including, but not limited to, the following: depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, grief, sleep disturbance, and stress management. I also have extensive experience working with the military population and individuals who have experienced trauma and self-harm thoughts/behaviors.
My communication style
My counseling style is warm yet engaging and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am frequently complemented on my non-judgmental demeanor and ability to connect quickly with clients.
My goals for you
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling, happier life and take those first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to listen, support, and empower you to reach a better place.
My first session with you
I am grateful our paths crossed, and I look forward to working with you!
