Kelle is a passionate counselor dedicated to bringing joy and relief to children and their families by helping them to heal and live their best possible life.  She is an honors society graduate of Northwestern University’s mental health counseling master’s program, with an emphasis on children and adolescents. Kelle is an integrated therapist, trained in a wide variety of therapeutic techniques, such as psychodynamic, ACT, CBT, DBT, play therapy, trauma counseling and of course, TF-CBT.  Kelle interned at the Collier County Children’s Advocacy Center and saw clients of all ages at Cornerstone Consultants. She is serious when needed but definitely has a silly side and always tries to make counseling fun and interesting!

With a background in brand management at companies such as Campbell Soup and Procter & Gamble and after overcoming numerous personal challenges, Kelle experienced a profound shift in her life and aspirations. In addition, watching the devastating effects of the pandemic on the children in her life, and healing from her own tumultuous childhood, inspired her to change careers later in life and help improve the mental health of young people.
