✨NOW ACCEPTING A LIMITED NUMBER OF NEW 1-1 CLIENTS FOR JANUARY 2025 ✨"Kelly’s authenticity, insight, and ability to be fully present feel like a warm hug. From my first meeting with her, I felt seen and welcomed. She sets a safe, positive tone that encourages real connection and honest exploration. Her curiosity and gentle coaching opened up space for me to reflect on areas of my life I'd been afraid to see clearly.""Kelly strikes an impeccable balance between open-hearted kindness, a good sense of humor, and a no-BS approach. I leave each session feeling energized and emboldened. I cannot recommend her highly enough." Hi, friend. I'm Kelly 👋. I help you make hard decisions and do hard things.Like you, I spent decades putting others' needs before my own—at work, in my family of origin, and especially in my own home. After almost 20 years of leadership roles and a lifetime’s worth of plot twists in my personal life (religious and work-related trauma, emotional abuse, chronic illness, multiple pregnancy losses, late-identified neurodivergence, coming out as queer, and supporting both my spouse and child through gender transitions), I made the decision in 2018 to seek greater meaning and purpose in my work, helping others to reconnect with their authentic selves and discover the joy, peace, and clarity that comes with finally identifying and prioritizing your own needs.I hold a MS in Psychology from Arizona State University and a certificate in wellness counseling from Cornell University, and my coaching work is informed by two years of intensive training in clinical mental health counseling. You'll find no gaslighting and no toxic positivity here. Just a safe and affirming space in which to unpack your overwhelm, unlearn harmful patterns, and begin crafting a life grounded in authenticity and joy.
