*If you are looking for chat only, you've come to the right place*
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oklahoma and Utah with 7 years of professional work experience. I enjoy and excel most working with clients ages 18-30 struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or relationship problems and are looking for a therapist who can help make the transition into adulthood a little easier. I use a solution-focused and acceptance and commitment therapy perspective. I also believe in therapy being enjoyable and fun, so expect some humor and lightheartedness to go along with your therapy treatment. I will always do my best to ensure treatment meets your unique and specific needs.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Kelly was awesome
She’s the best! Very understanding and will listen to anything and everything.
I LOVE Kelly. She is so friendly and just there for me through everything
Writing this feels like bidding farewell to a dear friend, even though I know it's not goodbye. Our time together has been a journey that transformed you from a professional I turned to for help into a cherished friend and confidante. Our sessions have given me the strength to face my fears, the wisdom to confront my doubts, and the courage to explore the depths of my soul. Through "Mindful Mondays" and every heart-to-heart conversation, not only has Kelly been my therapist but a trusted companion on this voyage of self-discovery. The thought of not having our regular sessions is bittersweet. It feels like saying goodbye to a confidante, but I find solace in the knowledge that the door of her guidance and wisdom remains open. Her support and friendship have meant more to me than words can express, and I carry the lessons she's imparted with me into the future. While our official therapeutic journey might be coming to an end, the bond we've built and the invaluable lessons I've learned from her will continue to shape my life. So, it's not goodbye but a "see you later," as I know that our paths will cross again. Kelly is an exceptional therapist, and her impact on my life has been nothing short of transformative. When I first sought her help, I was trapped in the tumultuous storm of a reactive and explosive marriage. But under her guidance, I've experienced a profound shift, moving from chaos to inner peace and serenity that can only be compared to the wisdom of Buddha. Kelly's approach to therapy is remarkable. Her deep understanding, unwavering support, and insightful guidance have allowed me to untangle the complex emotions and challenges I faced. With her by my side, I've learned to navigate my reactions, understand the source of my emotions, and cultivate inner tranquility. Her expertise is truly unparalleled, and I cannot thank her enough for the invaluable lessons she's imparted. Kelly has not just been my therapist; she's been my guiding light on a path of personal growth and self-discovery. I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly to anyone seeking profound positive change in their lives. She has the unique ability to lead her clients from chaos to calm, helping them find the peace and serenity they deserve. Kelly's therapeutic prowess has been a true blessing in my life.
She has been an amazing and productive therapist for me since last year. She is very talented and listens and cares about whatever situation you are in, whether it is current or in the past. The skills she has given me have helped me out tremendously and I wouldn't have been the person I am today without her provided me with them. She is just very caring and that is what I LOVE about her. Thankfully I was a match with her.
Kelly was so lovely to work with. She's very guiding between and during sessions, so if you show up to therapy and you're like "I'm fine now but three days ago I was really struggling, not sure how to address it" she will give you prompts and ask questions that are more than "how was your week?". It's really nice to be led in this context. She gave me a few insights that I think will stay with me forever!
Going into therapy, I wasn't sure what to expect, but Kelly listened to my expectations of her and has gone above and beyond. I always come out of our sessions feeling hopeful and motivated and she really listens to whatever i have to say and gives great insight back when I'm done. Cannot recommend her enough.
She’s awesome. She is great at messaging in between sessions, and giving helpful tips every day. She is very easy to talk to and has amazing strategies for helping me deal with my anxiety and depression.
Kelly has been an amazing support, helping me to work through anything from the most obscure issues to general day to day. I would highly recommend Kelly, she is kind, empathetic, knowledgable and supportive.
She is so nice and super helpful!
She is very efficient in responding to your messages in a timely manner. She REALLY does cares about any and every situation you are in regardless of what you are going through. I always have admired her expertise in advice since going to her for therapy in July and I am VERY thankful to have her as a therapist and that we matched. She is TRULY amazing!!
Kelly really tries to understand your problem to the root and asks many questions to open you up. It's nice that she sends the notes after each meeting and overall, is open to helping you as much as possible!
Mrs. Kelly .. I don’t know from where should I start but I remember when I first decided to start therapy I pray for a got therapist even I’m not a believer but it happened.. I couldn’t ask for a better therapist You’re way in helping me , changing my perspective in life and teach me how to meditate this made me mentally stable Thanks again
Insightful, intelligent and understanding. Kelly is very personable and accommodating to many situations.
She is a great listener and has great advice/tips and suggestions.
Kelly is truly an amazing therapist and human being. She will truly listen to you and provide a solution based response to your struggles without any personal judgment what so ever! I recommend Kelly to anyone wanting to become the best version of themselves through hard work and dedication.
She is very informative in her work, comforting and caring in what situation you are in, no matter if it is mild, moderate or severe. She always finds a way to resolve and diffuse the situation in the most simplest way. That is what I love about her. She really does care!
Kelly is fully engaged. It matters to her to understand not just what happened or you are going through, but the little emotions or changes during your situation. She does a great job of bringing the research and industry experience and knowledge to you in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming. Her blend of communicative skills from a professional to a comfortable person to talk with really helps you open up, which to me is the most important thing. Being comfortable with your therapist so you can handle the more significant issues that you haven't talked about. Kelly is phenomenal and I wish more people had a therapist like her.
Mis understood me during the first session and told me to find a new therapist instead of asking for clarification.
Kelly is an amazing professional therapist. She understood my problems that I did NOT know about, and she helped me overcome them. She helped reduce my anxiety and look at things differently!
