Psychotherapy and Counseling

What is Counseling?

Counseling, also called psychotherapy or talk therapy, helps people resolve their wellness, relational, and occupational concerns. Working in partnership, psychologist and client clarify goals and identify potential solutions to problems. Counseling can help develop greater self-awareness, build new skills, and alleviate distressing emotions.

For couples who are planning to marry, pre-marital counseling is a way to broaden your relationship skill level and build a stronger couple foundation.

What to expect with Psychotherapy and Counseling?

During your initial appointment with Dr. Kelly, she will focus on understanding what brings you in and how she can be of help. You will also have an opportunity to ask any questions and determine if you feel Dr. Kelly will be the right fit.

Individual counseling sessions are typically scheduled for 50 minutes but may be scheduled for a shorter or longer time depending on your individual needs and preference. The frequency of sessions and duration of counseling is planned together by you and Dr. Kelly.

Fees.

Our office will provide you with Dr. Kelly’s fees both verbally and in writing in advance of any scheduled appointments or services. Payment is collected at the time services are rendered. We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards. Our office does not submit for insurance payments and Dr. Kelly is not an in-network provider for any insurance companies.

If you plan to submit services to your insurance company for your reimbursement, please let us know in advance. We will provide you with a receipt containing the information needed.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
