She was trained in EMDR Therapy in 2009 and has used that ever since. She worked in community mental health for 14 years prior to starting her private practice in 2017; she is a Clinical Supervisor and loves mentoring others. Kelly is an EMDRIA Certified Therapist, an EMDRIA Approved Consultant, and EMDR Approved Trainer for EMDR Professional Training in both basic and advanced courses.
