Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling to find ways to cope? Have you felt that no one listens to you or validates you? You are not alone. Navigating life can be hard at times and I am here to help you. You are very brave for taking this step to receive mental health care. My name is Kelly, and I am currently a therapist-in-training while in my last year at University at Buffalo. I have my MS in Rehabilitation Counseling, and am currently in my last year of the LMHC Advanced Certificate program. I also have my Master’s CASAC, and have worked in the addiction and mental health field for the past twelve years.
During our sessions, I want you to feel safe and supported. I want us to work together to find ways to improve your life. Being vulnerable can be uncomfortable, but after time, vulnerability leads to beautiful things. My passion is meeting people where they are at, and helping them learn about themselves.
My experience in the addiction and mental health field has allowed me to work with individuals in all walks of life. I have worked in the areas of trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, identity issues, family systems and many more. I have received certification in DBT skills. I look forward to using my experience to empower you while you embark on this journey with me!
