    Anxiety and Depression

    Does it feel like the simplest tasks are overwhelming or like you are stuck in quicksand? I use proven methods to help clients with anxiety and depression. I help them understand and control their emotions, develop coping skills, and improve their mental well-being. I understand certain situations require medication, and if possible, my first line of action is “skills, not pills.”

Therapy Approach

Inspired Life Counseling offers innovative methods for exploring one's innermost thoughts, feelings, and situations that frequently result in anxiety, depression, anger, and emotional distress. Let's explore the past, be curious about the present, and make a straightforward, compassionate plan for the future.

One of the therapeutic approaches I use is Internal Family Systems (IFS).

IFS helps individuals explore their individual emotions and internal "parts" to better understand and work with their inner world. IFS is a journey of self-discovery where we learn to identify and appreciate the good intentions of each part or emotion within ourselves. Understanding our internal world helps us gain more control over our emotions. Our goal is to work to bring all the inner parts together in a more balanced, peaceful, and healthy way.

How does family therapy work? What can I expect?

For the first session, I typically meet with the parents or caregivers, and then the next session with the whole family. No family is the same and sometimes I will meet with the entire family, other times with the parents or caregivers, and sometimes individually with one of the parent/caregivers. On rare occasions, I will meet individually with the teens.

Testimonials

  • “Thank you again for all your help and the tools you’ve taught me. I have my ups and downs, but I feel confident in the tools and being able to make forward progress. You’ve made such a great impact on me, and I really appreciate it.”

  • “Your support has been truly a gift during a critical time and because of that I was able to start the next phase with direction and a clean slate…You helped me gain courage and confidence in myself and I carry that forward as I continue to dig into my past and process the wounds that impact my relationships. We’re wounded in relationship, and we’re healed in relationship. I carry that with me everywhere. Thank you immensely for being part of my life; I’m just overwhelmed with gratitude. Thank you thank you thank you Kelley.”

  • “When I started working with Kelley I was constantly angry—at my family, myself and the universe—and I felt helpless because I didn’t see our circumstances improving. She worked with me, my wife, our children—sometimes together and sometimes one-on-one, and we’ve made great progress. She’s compassionate, insightful and patient and that led to some light bulbs going on that simply wouldn’t have lit up without her walking alongside us.”

  • “I believe you were put in our lives for a reason and served that role honorably. You helped our family at a critical time and it is with the greatest gratitude that we all say THANK YOU.”

  • “Kelley is a ray of sunshine, gentle, and very good at what she does.”
