About Kelly

She also supports those facing life transitions, grief, addiction, parenting pressures, and sleep difficulties. Kelly focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions and a straightforward, nonjudgmental style.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and Mindfulness techniques to improve awareness. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is weighing a decision or wanting to make a change.
Kelly has five years of clinical experience in a range of settings. She describes herself as supportive and practical, helping people break problems into manageable steps. She emphasizes collaboration and clear goals.
Her LMHC credential means she is licensed to practice in New York. She conducts sessions in English. People interested in starting can expect a friendly, goal-oriented approach that mixes skill building with problem-solving.
How Kelly’s approaches translate to online therapy
Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT works well for anxiety, sleep issues, low mood, and many day-to-day struggles by teaching simple experiments and planning small behavior changes.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and Mindfulness techniques to manage strong emotions and improve moment-to-moment awareness. DBT-style skills include practical breathing and grounding practices, while mindfulness helps with focus and calming the mind during stressful times.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and rhythm. That means trying a skill, checking in on how it went, and adjusting based on what helps most.
The practical benefit of online therapy is making sessions fit into everyday life. Confirm the available session formats before booking, since formats are not listed in the profile. Many people find remote sessions easier to schedule around work, caregiving, and sleep routines, or useful for shorter check-ins when progress needs a quick review. Licensed professionals can guide goal setting, teach skills, and follow up between meetings to keep progress moving.
