Travis believes in a healthy therapeutic relationship built on trust to help individuals and families achieve their goals. He has specialization in children and adolescents, substance, couples and families, depression and anxiety, behavioral issues, addiction, trauma, outdoor recreation, and mental health counseling.
I have certifications in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Parenting, Trauma Focused Therapy, Moral Reconation Therapy, Domestic Violence Assessment and Treatment, Emotionally Focused Therapy, addictions, and play therapy. I have worked with many behavioral problems in children and adolescents, as well as adults.
Experiences and educational background include: Bachelors degree in Zoology and Physiology, Masters in Wildlife and Fisheries Biology/Zoology, Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. National certification in Mental Health Counseling. I have extensive experience as a clinical supervisor and director of a mental health and substance abuse clinic.
I believe in hope and healing, even in the midst of life’s most difficult challenges. As a clinical social worker and therapist with more than 30 years of experience, I offer compassionate, experienced support to individuals and families navigating serious illness, grief, loss, and caregiving.
I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Michigan and a Master of Arts (MA) in Counseling from Bowling Green State University. Throughout my career, I have specialized in helping people cope with the emotional and relational challenges that can accompany serious and chronic illness, including cancer, kidney failure, and dementia.
My work also focuses on grief and bereavement, including anticipatory grief—the grief that can begin before a death—as well as the profound loss that follows the death of someone we love. With experience as a palliative care and hospice clinician, I understand the complex intersection of medical, emotional, and family concerns that often arise during serious illness and at the end of life.
I also provide support to family caregivers, recognizing the tremendous emotional and practical demands of caring for a loved one. My goal is to create a compassionate, supportive space where individuals and families can feel heard, find meaning, process difficult emotions, and discover ways to move forward with greater hope and resilience.
I believe that even when we cannot change the circumstances we face, we can find support, connection, and healing as we navigate them together.
Hi! My name is Kelly and I am an LPC with certification in addictions. I specialize in gender identity and sexuality issues and sexual and relational diversity (such as polyamory, BDSM, and kink). I have a particular passion for working with those in relationships and working towards having healthy attachments. My practice focuses in the areas of trauma and healing, emotional dysregulation, identity, self worth and self acceptance, healthy boundaries, communication, and self care.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults and teens facing substance use, mental health challenges, trauma, and family reunification. I bring both professional training and lived experience to the work. I’ve worked in residential treatment, community mental health, reentry programs, and private practice, serving people from many different backgrounds. Clients often say I’m easy to talk to, direct, and relatable. My goal is to create a safe, honest space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to change your life.
I put my clients’ best interests at the center of our work. I take time to truly listen so you feel heard, respected, and supported, and I focus on adding real value to each session—not just talking in circles. With extensive training and multiple certifications, I’m able to connect with people from many different backgrounds and meet you exactly where you are.
