About Kellie
She uses solution-focused methods that aim for small, clear steps toward goals. Kellie emphasizes listening first, then identifying simple actions clients can try between sessions. She believes most people already have strengths to draw on, and therapy often helps by highlighting those strengths and adding a few new tools.
Kellie has 26 years of experience as a mental health professional. Her roles have included individual and family therapist, crisis counselor, home health therapist, respite foster care parent, and dialysis clinic social worker. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Social Work from the University of South Florida, and maintains LICSW and LCSW credentials.
Outside of clinical work she values time outdoors, camping, and live music, and she spends part of her time substituting with special needs students. These interests shape a down-to-earth, practical style in sessions.
People who want straightforward, goal-oriented help with life transitions and everyday stressors may find her approach useful. To begin, clients follow the site's Start Therapy flow and schedule based on availability.
How solution-focused work translates to online therapy
Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying specific, achievable goals and finding small steps that move a person toward those goals. Sessions focus on what is working and what can be changed quickly, which can make homework and short-term strategies feel useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes.The approach emphasizes practical actions rather than long explorations of the past. This can help when managing caregiver stress, chronic illness challenges, or feelings of isolation by breaking problems into manageable tasks and tracking progress over time.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Kellie will listen to your situation, goals, and preferences and together you will decide whether solution-focused work or another path is the best fit. She aims to tailor steps and exercises to match a client's daily routine and challenges.
