Hi! My name is Kelly, and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University – GSEP. I am passionate about helping adolescents and adults navigate life’s challenges by creating a space where they feel truly heard, valued, and supported.

My Journey
I have always believed that feeling heard and understood can make a profound difference in someone’s life. From a young age, I knew I wanted to create a space where people feel valued and supported. If I can help even one person feel truly seen, I know I’ve made an impact. As a therapist, I strive to empower adolescents and adults to navigate life’s challenges with resilience, self-awareness, and confidence. My goal is not just to help clients overcome obstacles but to help them recognize their own strength and potential along the way.
