About Kelli
Kelli works with a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, relationship struggles, grief, anger, low self-esteem, stress, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses additional areas such as abandonment, codependency, BDSM and kink, dissociation, domestic violence, fertility-related stress, first responder issues, gender dysphoria, and substance use challenges.
Her counseling style is warm and conversational, grounded in honesty and directness while remaining adaptable to each person’s needs. She combines client-centered methods with evidence-informed techniques - including mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and somatic work - to tailor care around individual goals. Kelli emphasizes seeing clients as whole people rather than diagnoses, and she prioritizes building trust so meaningful progress can happen. Her goal is to guide clients toward greater self-understanding, stronger coping skills, and increased confidence in making the changes they want in life.
Therapeutic approaches for online care and growth
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s experience guides the work. It helps people build self-awareness, self-acceptance, and confidence to make changes that matter to them. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and manage anxiety, stress, and intense emotions by learning to observe thoughts and sensations without getting swept away. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation for change, often used with addictions, behavior change, and readiness-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kelli works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques as therapy progresses so the plan stays aligned with what the client finds most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to access care around work, family, or mobility limitations. These options let clients receive consistent support from licensed professionals in ways that fit their daily life and schedule.
