Wise, down-to-earth, and a heck of a lot of fun, Kelly is a delightful mixture of left-brained smarts and right-brained magic. Kelly is insightful, intelligent, inspiring and a phenomenal listener. We have worked with her off and on over a 13 year period. This includes the fact that she worked with us even after she moved to a different state! We first went to her by recommendation and discovered that we had fallen into great hands. Our relationship needed a good kick in the ass! We had never experienced Imago Therapy, which we immediately found beneficial. Kelly was the perfect therapist; she confidently guided us through many issues, while her sense of humor kept our journey fun. Furthermore, Kelly’s addition of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) has only made her a more powerful therapist. I personally have experienced the benefit of EMDR with Kelly and have seen profound changes to my state of being. Kelly loves what she does and it shows. She can support you to reach both the most pragmatic solutions as well as the deepest transformations, while teaching you to take the reins and learn how to support yourself. ~ Nancy and Kim

Great gal that Kelly Patton. She helped turn my life around and find my self-esteem. My life is so much richer because of the time I spent with her gently guiding me to a fuller life. ~ Carole

Without question, Kelly is one of the most effective counselors I have had the pleasure to know. It is a joy to move out of an angry, sad place into one of self-improvement and feelings of accomplishment. No, she doesn’t wave a magic wand that changes me or my perceptions. Rather, she is the catalyst for personal growth, inviting/offering/challenging one to leave the unhappy familiar behind. She is gifted in a good dose of empathy (not sympathy) and devoted to ongoing training in her profession. She brings to the table strong listening and reflecting skills, sincerity in what she offers her clients and bravery in helping them stay the course. And, she’s fun! Learning about one’s self does not have to be all doom and gloom! ~ Ann

Kelly helped me through one of the hardest times in my life..., when my husband was terminally ill and then, subsequently died. She helped me through the grieving process and also helped me to make sure that my 16 year old daughter, who had just lost her father, stayed in check. Even though my husband passed away, I had a lot of marriage issues to work through to get mentally healthy....Kelly helped me in a very non-judgmental way and ultimately became my life coach...and, my friend. ~ Debbie

As a former client of Kelly's, I strongly recommend her for anyone looking to gain deeper insight into their own emotional development/trauma/abuse or couples counseling. Kelly is kind, gentle, honest, accepts being challenged, she’s knowledgeable and most importantly, non-judgmental. Emotionally speaking, I am not the same person I was when I first started with her and I dare say that if you are motivated you will not be either!! ~ J.A.M.

Quite simply, Miss Patton … you are absolutely amazing and shine like the brightest star above … a guiding light for those of us who may be lost for a bit … you help us get back on our true path … You ROCK! ~ Kim

My family and I have worked with Kelly on and off over the past 20 years. My fiancé and I did some beautiful premarital communication work, including vision maps and IMAGO therapy. She worked with our 5 year old when she was diagnosed with ADHD on socialization and self-esteem, and many years later with our 14 year old on communication and self-esteem. I did grief work after the loss of my mom, and some very powerful forgiveness work on relationships. Kelly is always professional, honest, insightful and fun! She is a ball of light and love, providing a safe nurturing environment that is solution oriented. ~ Karen 

Kelly is a very easy person to talk to and she makes you feel very comfortable. She helps you to think about things in a way that we tend not to see helping us to draw our own conclusions. This is a great trait as I like to know that I made my own decisions based on thinking through all aspects of a situation. I have learned a lot about myself through Kelly and am able to handle even the most difficult situations that before I may have struggled with. I am much more at peace thanks to the help Kelly has provided to me and know that I am capable of handling anything that comes my way. ~ Stacey L.

Kelly is a joy to work with as she approaches situations with curiosity and values that are engaging. She helps me explore and reflect and opens my thinking to the good in each of us; assisting me to find my own way to solutions. Kelly has an amazing ability to ask questions that challenge my thinking and bring new insights to my own behaviors. I am very grateful for her devotion and support of my recovery and my growth. ~ Chris

Dear Kelly, I am so grateful that you and I have had the chance to meet and do some work together. I've worked with several counselors over the years, as you know. You, however, are the last counselor I've needed. I appreciate your warmth, your commitment to your practice, your very connected presence, and your open mindedness. You made me feel very special and I know that your concern for the growth and well-being of your clients is genuine and authentic. Your ability to intersperse a variety of techniques and opportunities in the work we did together felt very fresh with each meeting. I think you have a true gift for customizing a process that can benefit the unique needs of each client that walks through your door.
