Hello: I am Dr. Ken McKellar and I have over 30 years in the Air Force. My background in the Mental Health space goes back to 1991, when I earned a Masters Degree from Boston University's Education Counseling program. I earned a PhD from St Mary's University in San Antonio. I am a licensed LPC in both Michigan and Texas and an LMHC in Florida. In my off time I enjoy golf and attending live music events. I am married and raised three children and have 5 grandchildren.
I am a licensed mental health therapist with a background in social work. I have a master's in clinical social work from the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay. I have experience working in outpatient therapy and medical settings, which has shaped my grounded and integrative approach to care. I work with adults and children navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, professional stress, grief, and patterns that feel difficult to shift. I also support individuals experiencing self-doubt, boundary concerns, emotional overwhelm, and relational dynamics that leave them feeling unseen or unheard.
In my approach to counseling, I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as the main approaches to counseling. It is important that each client's needs are met through their counseling experience, therefore, counseling is not limited to the above approaches. Biblical principles are also used as an approach to counseling. Counseling will be provided to a diverse population of individuals. Optimum health and healing is possible if you are willing to do the work! Be Willing!
