Do you ever wonder, "Am I depressed?". Do you find it hard to connect with others? Do you feel too drained to fully enjoy life? It doesn't have to be this way. Therapy creates space for you to unpack the fears and worries that shut you down. Together, we'll examine what's really going on and find the light at the end of the tunnel. With 14 years of experience, I specialize in helping people just like yourself, who know there's more to life than feeling this way every day. Let's get back to living.
My practice is rooted in delivering high-quality, patient-centered care designed to help you navigate and improve your mental well-being. I believe in a comprehensive treatment model with evidence-based medication management and tailored interventions.
I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and the mental health complexities of chronic medical illness. My expertise also extends to sleep disorders, stress reduction, and dual diagnosis.
Hello! I am Kimberly, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in KY, ID, and FL. I enjoy reading, nature, and traveling for fun. I pride myself on being genuine and easy to talk to. I am open-minded and non-judgmental. I believe that therapy should be treatment and not spinning our wheels while getting nowhere. I want to help you feel better. As your therapist I will teach you skills and help you understand yourself better so that you can become happier! I look forward to working with you to help meet your needs. My schedule is flexible so you may message me to request a time outside the shown availability
Same Week and Weekend Appointments Available!
I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). While I’m proud of my education and experience, titles aren’t what’s important to me. What matters is helping you feel better, helping you move forward, and supporting you in becoming the best version of yourself. I also have an extensive military background and served in the U.S. Army as both a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter pilot and a fixed-wing RC-12 pilot. My military experience taught me the importance of preparation, communication, teamwork, and staying calm when things get complicated. My style is informal, relaxed, and judgment-free. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say when we meet. Just show up as you are. I’ll meet you where you are mentally, and we’ll work together from there.
I’m Jessica Kelley, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps adults and couples navigate anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I also have a special interest in supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and other seasons of change.
My goal is to help you feel understood while making meaningful, lasting changes in your life. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or simply ready for something to change, we’ll focus on what matters most to you and build practical tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control.
Here's what I want you to know up front: I'm not going to make you feel like a case file. My background is in crisis intervention, case management, and advocacy — which means I've sat with people at their most unraveling moments, and I've learned that the most important thing isn't having a perfect therapeutic technique. It's making someone feel genuinely seen before asking them to do anything hard.
I specialize in trauma and substance use, and I work with individuals and families across all of Kentucky via telehealth. I'm also one of the very few therapists in the state who is fluent in American Sign Language — so if you or someone in your family communicates in ASL, you don't have to compromise on the quality of care you receive.
I'm openly LGBTQIA+-affirming, and I mean that in practice, not just on a checklist. I've worked with people across the gender and sexuality spectrum and genuinely enjoy holding that space.

- Northwestern Memorial Hospital
- Kaiser Permanente
- Common Spirit
- Mount Sinai Health System
This background allows me to offer deep clinical expertise paired with practical, real‐world understanding of how people heal and grow. My approach is warm, collaborative, open‐minded, and affirming. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or ready for change, I’m here to walk beside you with steady support and clinically grounded guidance. I specialize in therapy for adults experiencing:
- Anxiety & panic disorders
