ABOUT
ABOUT DOTTIE KELLY
Who I am.
I am a licensed professional counselor with 20+ years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in individual and group settings. My specialties include trauma systems therapy, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) therapy, diagnosing Symptoms Of Anxiety And Depression, treatment for grief and loss, narcissistic personality disorder treatment, domestic violence support groups, behavioral therapy for
kids and support for low self-esteem.
Trauma is not specific to violence but results from experiences such as death of family members and friends, chronic and acute illness, animal attacks, natural disasters, dealing with suicide, separation from parents, divorce, domestic violence, and war.
I work with a wide range of clients, including active-duty military, veterans, and first responders and their families, as well as children and adolescents who have experienced various traumas. I utilize various modalities in my treatment plans, including (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) EMDR Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Brainspotting therapy.
My treatment plans are designed to diminish distress and to facilitate a feeling of safety. Through a variety of treatment approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, ART, Brainspotting, sandtray therapy, play therapy, expressive arts, energy psychology, and psychotherapy, we will work together to strengthen your mind, body, and spirit so that you can continue on your path towards a more fulfilling life.
I am a member in good standing with the American Counseling Association (ACA), International Association of Trauma Professionals (CCTP), National Trauma Grief and Loss Institute, Certified Grief Counseling Specialist (CGCS) and EMDRIA.
