Welcome! I'm Kelly, a certified professional life coach with a gentle, strengths-based approach. I help women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community break cycles of dysfunction and self-sacrifice to finally claim the lives they need. My coaching philosophy is grounded in psychodynamic theory and incorporates concepts borrowed from Internal Family Systems, Co-Active Coaching, and somatic work. While the work we do together is not psychotherapy (my role is not to diagnose or treat mental illness), the pace and rhythm of my coaching sessions are very similar to what you would experience in a therapist’s office.

Welcome to all clients, 13+ that feel sad or stressed regarding school, work, relationship, goal setting challenges. Clients that dislike standard cold clinical therapy. Clients that are lgbtqia identified and clients who are on the Neurodiverse spectrum. Success is different, more like an objective friend or relative. :)

With experience in helping people with a wide range of life issues, I'll offer you my calming presence and solution-focused approach. My aim is to provide a safe environment for you to heal and to grow. I've worked with people facing anxiety and stress, depression, life transitions, substance use, relationship issues, and more. Part of my work includes teaching individualized meditation, breathing, and yoga techniques to help you overcome challenges and develop your strengths. While each of our stories and struggles are unique, I will always adapt to your style and support you in reaching your goals.

In times of uncertainty do you find it difficult to manage? Are you interested in discovering new ways of seeing and experiencing yourself? Do you feel resigned to your choices and options? Are you trying to find a different way to understand yourself; how you relate to others while building compassion for yourself and deepening your connections? Through the lens of liberation-based healing practices, I will assist with a process of validation, reflection, and questioning so that you can gain insight, feel more emotionally connected in your life. My approach is directive, people-centered, creative and supportive.

I aim to support my clients in finding meaning, fulfillment and success on their own terms. I utilize a strengths based approach creating a safe space free of judgement that is built on empathy and collaboration. Working together, we will develop a deep understanding of your inner self while learning to recognize patterns that may be holding you back from the life you deserve. I work with clients who struggle with relationships, anxiety and panic attacks, time management issues, and life-cycle transitions. I also have significant experience with adolescents, parents and foster parents.

With an infusion of humor and genuine warmth, I offer care that is direct, person-centered, and liberatory. By fostering a collaborative, empowering, anti-oppressive atmosphere, I actively support you as you navigate life's challenges while also celebrating your unique strengths. I encourage open communication, foster active self-discovery, and facilitate goal-setting to empower you on your personal journey toward growth, resilience, and overall well-being.

Many clients are in search of deeper happiness and emotional resilience in their lives and relationships. Often, out of innocence, we look outside ourselves for fulfillment instead of inward, towards our own true hearts. For over 25 years I have worked with couples and individuals seeking a way out of isolation and emotional suffering towards greater joy. This is your time to be on the planet. If you struggle with self-defeating patterns and would like help shifting towards a more vibrant life, please call me for a free consultation.

Everyone has creative energy within themselves. When we connect with this energy, we can connect to our deepest truths. As a non-binary and queer, sober, anti-capitalist and anti-racist creative coach, I help creative people discover and explore their authentic dreams while navigating the inevitable challenges of life as an artist. I believe that our creativity is inherently intertwined with our humanness, and that it is impossible to compartmentalize the two. Therefore, I support artists searching for accountability, motivation, expansion of creative processes, and guidance working through creative blocks, which often run deep.

I am the founder of Destined Horizons, PLLC. We are a private practice of dedicated therapists. In a society where "everyday" life stressors and even trauma have become the norm we have always believed that there is a new horizon of awareness that awaits. With over 20 years of combined experience working with individuals and families, we have promoted change through providing therapy to a variety of clients. Our experiences range from individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and couple therapy. We currently serve the states of New York, Georgia and Maryland.

I believe that self-acceptance and self-understanding are fundamental to meaningful change and that each of us has an innate healing capacity and ability to thrive. Sometimes, unresolved memories or traumas, anxiety, depression, self-criticism, identity issues, cultural conditioning or daily stressors can stand in the way of our sense of vitality and efficacy in life. I provide clients with a supportive, non-judgmental space (with a bit of humor when appropriate) to process psychological distress and get to the root of what is keeping you from orienting toward more authenticity and balance.

Our growth brings positive change! Today you are one step closer to a new you as you reach out for support and guidance with the realization that something isn't working effectively in your relationship with yourself and others. In a safe, caring and respectful environment I work with individuals, couples, and families toward creating more fulfilling lives. When we seek compassionate professional help at difficult times in our lives we are valuing ourselves and our relationships so that we can get what we need and deserve.

It can be challenging to carry all the stress and anxiety on your own. These challenges aren't definitive of you, your character, or identity. Moments and experiences shape you, they don't define you. Everything in life is a process. My goal is to help my clients to understand themselves, cope with emotions in a healthy way, encourage and promote a healthier mindset to shift their way of thinking into being. The vision for my clients is to assist them in coming home to themselves, living a life in the present as they build towards tomorrow.
