We all need help sometimes.
Humans thrive when we are truly in connection---connected to others, connected (integrated) within ourselves. But connected living sometimes means unraveling depression, anxiety, loneliness, grief, or other forms of suffering that can get in the way.
Hi . . . I'm Kelly. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist associate. My therapy office is located in North Dallas at Spring Valley/Dallas N. Tollway, but I can work with you on video if you're anywhere in Texas. I hold masters degrees in business (MBA) and family therapy (MS), and I’m working on my doctoral dissertation in depth psychology (PhD candidate, all coursework complete). I have specialized training in emotionally focused therapy (EFT for couples, EFIT for individuals), relational and experiential therapy, trauma therapy, as well as Jungian depth-oriented psychotherapy. I have a compassionate manner and a positive, nonjudgmental attitude. I seek to provide a safe, non-pathologizing environment for new life possibilities to emerge. I’d love to meet you and begin working closely with you on improving your life circumstances, enhancing your relationships, and transforming whatever you’re struggling with—pain, stress, hurt, anger, loneliness, confusion, sorrow, or maybe just feeling stuck. We'll collaborate to create and discover your best life story. Together we can move toward finding deeper meaning, inner and outer connection, healing, transformation . . .
PLEASE NOTE: I do not accept insurance, but I try to keep fees relatively low. I can provide documentation for you to file for insurance reimbursement if you like. Feel free to use an FSA/HSA card if you have one.
