Dr. Stephanie Kelly, PsyD
Hello! And welcome! Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. One of the most important aspects of therapy is a good fit between therapist and client. Please consider if my experience and treatment philosophies align with your goals.
​
Do you feel stuck? Overwhelmed? Anxious? Frustrated? Then you have come to the right place. I have helped children, teenagers, and adults discover the roots of these reactions and develop pathways toward more stable, productive, and happier lives.
​
I utilize a strength-based, collaborative approach when working with clients. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). When working with children, I integrate play and art to channel their attention and open outlets for expression and creativity.

I also participate in The Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT) which allows me to practice telepsychology in PSYPACT states. This has been very helpful for the continuity of care for clients who relocate or travel, and for students who set off to college outside of Illinois. Please ask me for more details.
