Accepting New Clients. Kelsey Riddle Therapy & Wellness PLLC is a multi-state practice that provides quality bonding-science and nervous system-informed Teletherapy services to clients in Tennessee, Arizona, and North Carolina. Teletherapy sessions are being conducted through an easy to use HIPAA compliant video service. Through the use of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and Gottman Method Couple Therapy, I help clients to become aware of negative patterns keeping them stuck, and change them. Through this, we can have new healthy interactions and experience more vulnerable communication and connections.

Deep within each of us is the innate desire to tell our story, to have it heard by another. It is in this being known that we find acceptance, connection, and belonging. When our stories hold narratives of unprocessed grief, abuse and low self-worth, our longing for deep connection may be thwarted by paralyzing fear that tells us “If you truly knew me…”. This leaves us feeling stuck, hopeless and unwilling to risk inviting others into our lives, and our energy becomes focused on perfectionism and hiding or denying our true, authentic selves. As a result, we live small, constricted lives that do not support what we value most.

I am most passionate about working with those who consider themselves Neurodivergent (ND) (quirky, creative, weird, unique, etc.). This includes those with ADHD, Autism, sensory processing differences, social anxiety, OCD, who burnout easily, think and feel more deeply than others, and/or experiencing mental health symptoms that result from efforts in masking (the act of hiding or denying parts of yourself in order to conform to societal expectations).

In therapy with me you'll learn the language of your nervous system to become your own best medicine & healer. Life is too freaking short to be anyone but yourself, and if you're not experiencing your life the way you'd like to.. we can change that. As an anxiety specialist, I can tell you that you don't have to feel so stuck & unfulfilled. Happy lives & relationships aren't just what happen to other people. You know that wise inner voice of yours? The one quietly telling you that things don't have to be this way? That's a voice that we'll work to amplify in our work together with high compassion, low B.S.

I love working with clients that are dealing with challenges, and assist them in gaining the tools they need to increase their ability to live a sustainable life. Growing up in an area filled with poverty, I developed a personal understanding of what it’s like to go without due to lack of basic needs. As a Black woman, I have also seen a lot of racial injustice as well as the impact of unaddressed mental health challenges due to limited resources and access to care. As a result of my lived experiences, I refuse to remain silent and I have a desire to support those who are normally looked over and forgotten about.

Grief can be a terrifying mountain to climb. If you’ve experienced loss, you know how difficult it can be. Maybe you feel angry, confused, alone. You find it hard to remember who you are and maybe even feel like you’ve lost sight of who you can be. I want you to know that this feeling won’t last forever. Whether you’re new to grief or feel stuck in it, whether you have lost a loved one or are grieving the loss of an anticipated life, I want to help you on your journey back to you. I work with clients dealing with various issues, including grief, life transitions, anxiety, depression, boundary issues, and self-esteem issues.

With over twelve years as a practicing therapist, I am currently licensed in California, Tennessee, and Colorado. I have helped clients: improve anxiety levels, self esteem, depression, relational issues, phobias, lack of a sense of life direction, sleep, and more. Through teaching skills such as noticing and being with sensations, feelings, and thoughts, clients are able to notice the patterns that get us stuck. Those with trauma see reductions in their PTSD symptoms, often using EMDR.

Life coaches have lots of life experience... often times they have overcome the exact issue you are struggling with. Life coaches listen to your life story, identify your strengths and what is working for you, and help you clarify your goals. They also hold you accountable for making daily changes in order to live a life you love. Many also teach life and relationship skills, and share coping skills that are often helpful for people struggling with your issue.

A good definition of life would include how one meets or exceeds each challenge along the journey. Those challenges can come in many forms, and there are times when speaking to a therapist can be of great assistance. As a therapist, my goal is to hold an emotionally safe space where any and all topics can be discussed and processed. Utilizing a client-centered and strengths-based approach, my practice is focused on helping individuals, couples and families to better themselves and increase their well-being.

I help disgruntled couples, frustrated parents, overwhelmed teenagers, and anxious business owners. Human beings are social and require environments that make them feel valuable, understood, protected, and free to communicate all emotions. Take control of your happiness, replace anxiety with peace of mind, navigate relationship issues, improve your parenting toolbox, make tough decisions, and take control of the emotional rollercoaster. Your life is a journey not a destination, it helps to sit in the driver's seat.

Hello everyone! Thanks for taking time to read my profile. I help disconnected couples, restless entrepreneurs, and individuals stifled by anxiety and depression. When I entered this profession, I realized that everyone on the planet needs a safe place to go where they can be completely themselves...and say anything they care to say. At times we need to chat with someone who's not part of our family or friend circles, someone with the training and skills to navigate confusing thoughts, emotions, relationships, careers, and matters of faith.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
