Kellie Foster, LMHC, LCMHC

Kellie Foster greets people with a calm, conversational style. She aims to help those feeling stuck by listening closely and working alongside them. Sessions focus on practical steps for day-to-day life, whether the concern is stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or larger shifts like midlife change.

Kellie uses an integrated approach rather than a single method. She draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to challenge unhelpful thoughts and from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take meaningful action. Client-Centered principles shape how she builds trust and supports each person's pace.

With 13 years of experience, Kellie brings perspective on common life transitions such as career shifts, grief, caregiving strain, and relationship friction. She also works with issues tied to adoption and foster care, chronic illness, fertility concerns, and compassion fatigue. Her aim is to reduce overwhelm and create workable plans for moving forward.

Kellie holds a Master of Arts and practices as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC). She is based in Florida and conducts sessions in English. International work is not accepted at this time.

She asks people to begin by using the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. The therapist can tailor techniques to each person's goals and encourages clients to be active partners in the process.

How these approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people identify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are uncomfortable. It can be useful for life transitions, midlife reevaluation, and persistent worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting patterns of thought that keep problems going and practicing new, more helpful ways of thinking and behaving. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person in the room; the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s pace to build trust and clarity.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what fits their goals, preferences, and daily life. That might mean trying a few techniques and adjusting based on what feels helpful.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people work from a location that minimizes distractions and better supports focused conversation. Licensed professionals will discuss practical details and help arrange sessions that match each person’s routine and goals.
