I help women reconnect with themselves—especially in the moments when life hasn’t gone according to plan. Many of the women I work with are helpers themselves: therapists, educators, healthcare workers, mothers. They’re navigating overwhelm, grief, perfectionism, relationship struggles, and questions of identity. They’re high-achieving and deeply caring, yet often unsure how to extend the same compassion inward.
Have you struggled to find peace of mind in life? Have life's transitions thrown you for a loop? Sounds like you've been trying to get the most out of life and that journey has impacted your mental health. This is where I can join you, right where you are, with whatever concern(s) you have. I work with adults and teenagers to find the balance they've been looking for.
Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I have been a Licensed Social Worker for 17 years and believe that therapy is a wonderful tool for growth and change. My approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and help you live your best life!
Hello! My name is Kelly and I look forward to working with you!
I earned a Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) from the SUNY Albany School of Social Welfare, with clinical training that provides the foundation for psychotherapy practice. Throughout my over 20 years of clinical practice, I have been afforded the opportunity to work in a variety of environments with diverse populations.
For 11 years, I have sat with people at some of the hardest moments of their lives, from
medical crises to the quieter weight of anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. I bring a
collaborative, nonjudgmental presence because the best work happens when you feel
genuinely heard. If you are ready to start, I would love to meet you.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and trauma. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from NYU. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can talk openly, gain clarity, and develop practical tools to move forward. My focus is helping you better understand patterns, manage what feels overwhelming, and make meaningful, lasting changes in your life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Buffalo
Finding a postpartum therapist in Buffalo starts with identifying the type of support you need. Postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and other perinatal mood concerns are common, and support from a qualified healthcare professional may help. Look for a licensed provider such as an LCSW, LMHC, or psychologist who has specific experience with perinatal mental health. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you commit.
With providers practicing across Buffalo, Amherst, Tonawanda, and the greater Erie County area, you have options for both in-person and virtual sessions. Virtual appointments can be especially practical when you're caring for a newborn and leaving the house feels like a lot. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider's specialty, their availability, or whether they offer a free introductory call.
Postpartum therapy in Buffalo can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a postpartum provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
