Dr. Tracy Kelly, LMFT

My clinical work focuses on perinatal mental health, women’s mental health, menopause and perimenopause-related transitions, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and relational and family systems. I am trained in Brainspotting, which I integrate when helpful for trauma, grief, and emotional processing. My approach is person-centered and relational, integrating evidence-informed methods such as CBT and ACT, and experiential methods tailored to each client.

In supervision, I focus on helping developing clinicians grow in confidence, clarity, and clinical competence. I support case conceptualization, understanding complex presentations and helping clinicians slow down, trust their clinical thinking, and develop a grounded therapeutic voice.

I value helping new clinicians move through early uncertainty into steadiness and confidence. I bring warmth, genuineness, professionalism, and meet clinicians where they are while supporting growth at a manageable pace.

I am influenced by Yalom’s “here and now” approach and attend to what is unfolding in the moment within supervision. Learning involves mistakes, uncertainty, and discomfort, which are all essential parts of becoming a therapist.

Supervision is collaborative and supportive while also offering clear, practical feedback to strengthen clinical reasoning, ethics, and real-world application. Because I have run a private practice since the beginning of my internship, and worked at a variety of agencies as a contract therapist, I also bring practical guidance on documentation, boundaries, and clinician development.

My goal is to help clinicians become competent, thoughtful, and grounded in their work while developing their own authentic clinical voice.
