Kelly Sherman-Hester, LCSW

I am committed to helping people overcome anxiety, depression, traumatic events, and other stresses that affect all of us at some time in our lives.  

I believe that healing is a collaborative endeavor that requires honest caring without judgment, and I cooperatively assist my clients in clarifying their goals for treatment. Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues, I draw from a variety of methods to create a tailored approach for each individual and situation. As a therapist, I am warm, open, encouraging, and direct. I consider myself an active therapist, combining experience, education, creativity, and sense of humor with a down-to-earth, realistic approach to counseling.

I have training in several areas with a focus in using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Advanced Trauma-Focused Cognitive Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Applied Neuroscience for treating anxiety, panic and worry, Gottman Method of Couples Training, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, and Somatic Psychology.
