Hi, I’m Kelly, founder of the collective
As a queer genderfluid person, I wanted bring queer affirming therapy to folxs across many different states. My goal is to mentor clinicians and provide therapy through an antiracist, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and feminist lens. It is deeply important to me to provide comprehensive psychotherapy with a focus on substance use, interpersonal relationships, and sexuality.
Through a trauma informed lens, I aim to help individuals and couples struggling with a variety of issues. These include substance use, relationships, intimacy, sexuality, and marginalized stress, to name a few. These life stressors affect each of us in unique ways, which is why I carefully tailor each person's treatment in a customized, individualized approach. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate and safe space to provide comprehensive care to LGBTQAI+ folxs. Throughout life, we tend to develop unhealthy coping and survival mechanisms as a way to protect ourselves.
Working together, you will become aware of these unhealthy mechanisms and learn new healthy ways to navigate the world. It is deeply important to me to provide psychotherapy with a focus on aligning core values in one’s life.
I place the most value on the therapeutic relationship, developing a unique rapport with each of my clients. Using a collaborative approach with a core belief that you are the expert in your own life, together, we can heal and transform your world. I encourage you to take the next step in your journey and reach out to me for a brief consultation.
Background
While obtaining my master’s of social work at the University of Buffalo, I discovered my passion for couple’s work and human sexuality. I spent many years of my postgraduate work focusing on substance use disorders while pursuing further education in couple’s and sex therapy. I have worked in government agencies, nonprofit settings, private practice, and outpatient clinics.
I have pursued a post masters certification in sex therapy and have dedicated several hours to learning and understanding human sexuality. It is my belief that we are all worthy of pleasure, love and compassion.
