Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Miami, FL

I received my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis on child and adolescent psychology. I have a passion of working with children, adolescents, adults, and families with complex emotional and behavioral difficulties, including a focus on traumatic experiences, interpersonal difficulties, and emotional dysregulation. Additionally, I have specialized training working with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disabilities, complex trauma , juvenile delinquency, personality disorders, as well as sexual exploitation and trafficking.

My goal is to provide high quality and accessible care. I have worked in every mental health setting, at every level of care. I believe my experiences and expertise in the mental health field sets me apart from most clinicians. I focus on assessment in order to create a treatment plan fit for the specific needs and wants of my patients. I have worked with all demographics, but specialize in teens and adults with a focus on trauma , substance use, and co-parenting/family dynamics.

Hello! My name is Julie Kelly and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 6 years of clinical experience. My focus areas of practice include depression, anxiety, and trauma processing. I have extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults. Since there’s no “one size fits all” in counseling, I use a holistic approach based on the unique needs of each individual. Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) or Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TFCBT) are most often used to help clients better understand how their thoughts, feelings and behaviors all interact and affect well-being.

Every day, I strive to help individuals, families, and couples to rekindle their hope while facing life’s obstacles. For over 9 years, my comprehensive experience in community based counseling services, and private settings have enabled me to successfully treat: anxiety, depression, trauma , bullying, improving relationships, anger management, sexual orientation, gender identity, self-esteem, divorce, dissociation, PTSD , substance misuse and borderline personality disorder. To further my dedication in helping others, I am a registered MFT Intern in the process of completing my state licensure obligations.

I help professional men who feel depressed and anxious because they have experienced trauma . Men who are having relationship difficulties and feel uncertain about what they want in their lives. Who struggle with their sexuality and do not know where they fit in? Their lives are not working because they feel stuck and unable to attain their life goals. By exploring in-depth the function of their depression and anxiety we can understand the underline issues and challenge those cognitive distortions. So, the change not only happens cognitively but also with bodily awareness.

Do you struggle to cope with everyday issues? Are you experiencing high levels of anxiety and depression that won't go away? When we've experienced trauma in our lives, everyday problems can seem too big and overwhelming to handle. Maybe you're experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, panic attacks or constantly finding yourself in toxic relationships. I have many years of experience in helping clients identify the root of their destructive patterns as well as overcome trauma and PTSD . I am also highly experienced in treating depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, adjustment challenges and loss/grief.

If you are here, it means you have taken the first step to change your life. It takes courage to recognize that we are hurting and need help. Therapy can be a scary process for many people and it’s important to find the right person to embark on this journey with. If you decide to work with me, I will do my best to help you build resilience, emotional regulation, self-compassion, self-awareness, and self-acceptance.

Taking the first step to contact me to discuss therapy is not an easy one. You may have been thinking about it for some time and hoping things would get better on their own. Maybe sadness continues to seep into your life, especially with people and places that used to bring you joy. People don’t seem to understand what’s wrong and seeking support from friends and family is more difficult. They may even think you’re making a bigger deal out of things than they really are. Are you worrying more than you used to before? Or maybe you’re thinking about who you are and who you want to be. It’s scary and you’re not sure how to get there.

Have you been discouraged by your dire trying to stop something that stresses you out through the bombardment of non-stop racing thoughts, flashbacks, or even the act of overthinking situations? Consistently finding yourself trying to get out of a pool of depressive thoughts, anxiety, or anger that are chronically affecting you and your family to the point of feeling lost and hopeless. In spite of having the flood of helpful and educational information “out there”, here we are, still STUCK in pain and suffering. The scars of unbearable emotional pain portray themselves through our emotional, physical, and spiritual health.

Life can throw a number of curve-balls our way. Sometimes these experiences are manageable, but often they bring up a number of feelings, thoughts, and reactions that impact our daily functioning. Perhaps you are struggling with infertility, grief/loss, the challenges of pregnancy + new parenthood, or postpartum anxiety/depression. Maybe you have experienced trauma in your lifetime and have never had the space to give it the narrative it deserves. Or are experiencing stress from a new life transition. Whatever it might be, I offer a collaborative, safe, and supportive environment to find the solutions that best meet your needs.
