About Kellie

Kellie Kizis is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with more than 15 years of experience as a social worker and counselor. As an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker, she has supported individuals and some of their family members through a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, parenting challenges, cancer diagnoses, low self-worth, grief and loss, and trauma.

Her clinical background includes work in hospitals, hospice settings, and a fitness center, which has informed her knowledge of medical issues and body wellness. In addition to conventional therapeutic techniques, she integrates holistic practices such as essential oils and serves as a Reiki Master, bringing multiple perspectives to healing and self-care.

Kizis offers a warm, interactive, and nonjudgmental counseling style that emphasizes partnership. She collaborates with clients to problem solve and develop an individualized plan of action aimed at meaningful progress. Her methods are tailored to each person and draw from mindfulness therapy, cognitive behavioral approaches, solution-focused methods, trauma-informed care, and holistic practices when appropriate.

She is committed to supporting, empowering, and celebrating clients as they move through life changes and healing journeys.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration. In this approach the therapist follows the client's lead to build goals and supports change by validating experience and strengthening self-direction - it is especially helpful for self-esteem, family concerns, and coping with life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is practical and structured and can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and developing new coping skills.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and techniques for regulating emotions and reducing reactivity. It can be useful for stress management, anxiety, grief, and for building resilience after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kellie Kizis works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches to create an individualized plan.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, continue care from different locations, and maintain consistent contact with licensed professionals and therapists who can support progress over time.
