Kelly L. Cheatham, PhD, LPC-S, NCC
I am a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals and couples find healing, growth, and empowerment. With 14 years of experience in the field of mental health, I have had the privilege of supporting clients from diverse backgrounds, guiding them on their unique journeys toward well-being.
I believe in a client-centered and holistic approach to therapy, tailoring my methods to suit your individual needs and goals. My primary focus is on creating a warm, non-judgmental, and confidential environment where you can freely express yourself. I draw from various therapeutic modalities, including existential therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, ensuring a well-rounded and effective treatment.
Over the years, I have developed expertise in addressing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. My specialties include:
- Relationship and Family Dynamics: Guiding couples and families in enhancing communication, resolving conflicts, and nurturing healthier relationships.
- Self-Exploration and Personal Growth: Encouraging self-discovery, self-compassion, and personal development to lead a more fulfilling life.
- Anxiety and Stress Management: Helping individuals navigate and overcome anxiety-related issues, providing practical tools to manage stress effectively.
- Trauma and PTSD: Assisting individuals in processing and healing from past traumas, fostering post-traumatic growth.
