Kelly is currently completing her Masters in Counselling Psychology (MACP Qualifying) from Yorkville University. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Bachelor of Education. She is also a certified group fitness instructor and holds various certifications including ASIST. Due to her experience and qualifications, Kelly offers a unique therapeutic perspective based on the convergence of mental and physical health. Through a holistic, person-centred, trauma-informed approach, she helps clients embrace and explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build the skills they need to tackle life’s challenges. She believes that humans should be considered as a whole, with particular attention to the reciprocal relationship between body and mind.
Kelly’s multi-modal approach to therapeutic intervention is uniquely developed for each client, typically drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused (SFT), and Strength Based Therapy.
Kelly has a passion for working with a wide range of women’s health issues from adolescence to older adulthood, including perinatal wellness, perimenopause/menopause transition, body image, chronic illness, infertility, anxiety, stress, trauma, and managing difficult life transitions. She is currently accepting new clients for low-cost and/or sliding-scale individual counselling services. In-person and online appointments are available. Please contact the clinic or book yourself for a 15-minute consultation. Kelly is honoured to be a part of your healing journey with Serenity Now Wellness.
Kelly looks forward to seeing you soon!
