Throughout my experience of practicing, a common need I have recognized is 'space'. Often individuals are seeking a safe space to be. To be themselves. To be seen. To be heard. If you are looking for a cozy or virtual space to release, re-fuel, and/or heal I am happy to facilitate the space you may be looking for.

When your world turns upside down, it can take all the courage you have to hold on. Life can throw some blindsiding curveballs — difficult transitions, traumatic experiences, profound loss, unexpected and worsening symptoms, relational brokenness, and so many more. As the world begins to spin, we wonder how the dust will settle, and what life will look like when it does. I’ve been there, and understand that moments and seasons of life, just like this, take incredible courage to face. It’s risky to look change and challenge in the eye ... but you are far braver than you know.

Have you been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, depressed or like your life seems to be really hard right now? Maybe you are just so tired of always putting yourself last and have lost who you are and what you want out of life. Or, you have been feeling disconnected in your relationship due to having the same arguments, the same issues, or feeling like roommates, and you just don't know how to make it better. Or, you have recently gone through a divorce or breakup and you just don't know how to pick up the pieces, heal, and move forward. You really just want to finally experience some peace, clarity, and to get your life back.

Coming to therapy can be an intimidating process. I do my best to make my clients feel comfortable whether we are meeting online or in person. The last thing people want is an uptight, professional that makes them feel like they need to censor themselves. I am conversational, warm, and look forward to developing a therapeutic relationship with adolescent and adult clientele. I pride myself on being non-judgmental and create a safe space where clients can be vulnerable to share anything they may need to - expletives and all.

Hello! I'm Kelly. I was born and raised in Southern Illinois. I grew up in a military family and so have a sense of understanding of how community can help. I received my MSW in Social Work from SIU Edwardsville in 2013 and got my LCSW in 2017. I have worked with children in all different settings since 2014. The LGBTQ community has been a part of my practice, especially when working in the most rural of areas. I have helped children and adults with different diagnoses over the course of my career and continue growing in my knowledge of how to serve each individual.
