Kelly Mitchell, LMHC

I completed my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology in 1997. Since then I have studied countless hours learning new theoretical approaches informed by science and art. I have spent hundreds of hours in supervision and worked with a variety of populations. For 8 years, I practiced part-time and worked with Dr Vijapura on phase II and phase III pharmaceutical trials. All these things have added knowledge and depth to my understanding of people. 23 years later, I am focused on working with people struggling with transitions. Transitions occur in many places and are influenced by many factors. Mood disorders, damaged or absent relationships, those who are attempting to cope with circumstances or situations that feel beyond their control. Bottom Line: Through my own experiences with self-doubt, mistakes, relationships (and oh yes, education) I have come to believe that people grow when they choose courage over comfort, vulnerability over Shame.
