My goal as your therapist is to be able to help you move through the difficulties that you are facing. I strive to be someone who is non-judgemental and caring throughout every interaction. I enjoy working with clients who have various backgrounds and experiences, including mental health and substance abuse. I have worked in a psychiatric hosptial as well as a recovery center, where recovery and progress were the main goals. I have gained a lot of real-life experiences and learned a lot of lessons from the clients that I have had the pleasure to interact with. I believe that all clients have knowledge to be shared with me.
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.
I’m a person-centered therapist with more than ten years of experience helping people navigate grief, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, family conflict, heartbreak, abuse, and trauma. I work with a broad range of clients and bring specialized training in EMDR and trauma-focused care to my practice. I know what it is to struggle, and I believe healing begins when you no longer have to face that struggle alone. My role is to meet you where you are, help you imagine where you want to be, and walk alongside you as you find the courage to get there.
I am an LCSW with a Master's of Social Work degree and have been in field over 12 years.
Many people come to therapy because something in their relationships isn’t working—conflict that keeps repeating, difficulty feeling close, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or others. Beneath these patterns, there is often something deeper: old wounds, protective strategies, and unmet longings that continue to shape how we show up in the present.
