Therapist

Hi there! I’m Kellie, and if you’re reading this sentence then I believe you have just begun one of the most important journeys of your life. I am a Christian therapist specializing in teens and young adults (20-30) struggling with anxiety, depression, and all the who-am-I questions that accompany growing up and becoming who they want to be. I have walked alongside teens and young adults for 13 years in both their heartaches and healing. I have an ever-growing passion to help them see beyond the pain of their circumstances and pursue the coping skills that help to make life more manageable.

I believe good mental health care starts with feeling heard and respected. My background in nursing has taught me to look at the whole person and consider how mental health, physical health, medications, and life experiences can all connect. I’m thoughtful and thorough in my approach, and I want my clients to feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and being themselves.
