Does This Feel Familiar?
Recognition first.
Explanation second.
01 You look capable on the outside, but feel stretched thin underneath it.
02 Saying no brings guilt, so you keep carrying what was never yours.
03 You replay conversations and measure yourself against impossible standards.
04 You are ready for a life that feels like yours—not another performance.
These patterns didn’t come from nowhere
Maybe overthinking helped you feel prepared.
Maybe being easygoing, helpful, or agreeable helped you keep the peace.
Maybe pushing yourself made you feel safer than slowing down ever could.
These patterns may have made sense at one point. But that doesn’t mean you have to keep living inside them.
Therapy can help you understand what you’ve been carrying, notice what is no longer working, and practice responding to your life in a different way.
Imagine If...
You could make a decision without asking five people what they think.
You could say no without spending the rest of the day feeling guilty.
You could rest without first proving you’ve done enough.
You could trust that someone’s disappointment doesn’t automatically mean you did something wrong.
Therapy won’t remove every uncomfortable feeling. But it can help you stop organizing your life around avoiding them.
How I Can Help
You don't have to have it all figured out.
01 Anxiety Therapy — Even if your mind won't stop racing. Even if calm feels like a foreign language.
02 Trauma Therapy — Even if your experiences still feel heavy. Even if you've spent years pushing them away.
03 EMDR Therapy — Even if you've talked about it before. Even if it still feels stuck.
04 Christian Counseling — Even if your faith feels distant. Even if you're not sure what you believe anymore.
05 Church Hurt — Even if church was the place that wounded you. Even if you don't know what to call it yet.
Hi, I'm Kellie
Therapist in Burbank, CA
I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor offering in-person therapy in Burbank and online therapy for women across California. I draw from EMDR, IFS, CBT, and mind-body approaches, and for clients who want it, I also bring faith into the work.

I don't believe you're broken. I believe many of the patterns you're struggling with today developed for a reason.
Together, we'll work to understand those patterns with compassion, build on your strengths, and help you move toward meaningful and lasting change.

Questions Before We Begin
Who do you work with?
I work with women who've been too good for too long and are ready to stop performing, set boundaries, and build a life that feels like theirs. Many of my clients are people-pleasers and perfectionists who carry anxiety, burnout, or the lasting effects of difficult experiences.
Do you offer online therapy throughout California?
Yes. I offer secure online therapy for women located anywhere in California, and in-person sessions at my office in Burbank.
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that helps people process distressing experiences so they feel less overwhelming. I use it for trauma and for painful early experiences that still shape how you respond today. You can read more on my EMDR therapy page.
Do I need to have experienced major trauma to benefit from therapy?
No. Many women come to therapy because of anxiety, chronic stress, perfectionism, or people-pleasing, without a single event they'd call trauma. You don't have to decide whether your experiences were "bad enough" before reaching out.
Do you offer Christian counseling?
Yes. If you want to bring your faith into therapy, we can make room for it, along with questions, doubt, or church hurt. Faith is never required, and it's always your choice. You can learn more on my Christian Counseling Page.
How much does therapy cost?
Sessions are $225 and self-pay. More details are on my rates page.
What happens in the free consultation?
It's a short conversation, about 15 minutes, to explore what's bringing you to therapy and what you'd like to feel different. It also gives you a chance to ask questions and see whether we'd be a good fit, with no pressure to commit.
You Don't Have to Do This Alone
Even if reaching out feels uncomfortable.
Even if you've been carrying this for a long time.
Even if you're not sure where to start.
You don't have to have it all figured out before beginning.
I'd be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater healing, self-understanding, and growth.
