About Kelly Kuehl

Who Kelly helps:
Kelly works with adults and has a special passion for supporting older adults and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. She strives to create an affirming, welcoming environment where clients feel respected, understood, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges.

Specialties:
Kelly supports clients navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, boundary-setting, self-esteem, and other challenges that can impact overall well-being. She focuses on helping clients recognize and build upon their existing strengths while developing practical strategies to create meaningful and sustainable change.

Treatment approaches:
Kelly takes a strengths-based, collaborative approach to therapy, tailoring treatment to each client’s individual needs, experiences, and goals. She believes therapy is most effective when clients feel comfortable being themselves and when the therapeutic relationship provides a foundation for honest, genuine conversation.

Therapeutic style:
Kelly is a real person first and a therapist second. She believes therapy works best when it feels like a genuine conversation rather than a clinical experience. Her style is warm, authentic, affirming, and direct, with an emphasis on healthy boundaries, strengths, and maintaining hope and perspective. Clients can expect a space where they can be themselves, feel heard, and work collaboratively toward what matters most to them.

Leadership & Community Partnerships:
In addition to providing clinical care, Kelly serves in an executive director-level leadership role focused on building referral pipelines, developing community partnerships, and creating sustainable systems that support future growth and access to care. She is passionate about connecting behavioral health providers and community organizations to strengthen resources for those seeking support. Kelly welcomes opportunities for networking, speaking engagements, community partnerships, and marketing or referral collaborations.

Credentials:
Kelly is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field.
