Specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, he integrates these modalities to create a holistic and client-centered approach. His use of CBT enables him to help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns, fostering healthier ways of thinking and behaving. Through mindfulness practices, he guides clients in developing greater self-awareness and emotional regulation, empowering them to navigate life’s challenges with resilience. Motivational interviewing, another cornerstone of his practice, allows Kelly to work collaboratively with clients, supporting them in finding their intrinsic motivation and setting achievable goals.
