Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I’m a multi-state licensed clinical social worker who is deeply passionate about helping people build healthier, more authentic relationships—starting with the relationship they have with themselves.
In my work, I often support individuals who have spent much of their lives over-accommodating, over-functioning, or feeling responsible for others. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to prioritize their own needs without guilt. They may feel chronically anxious, depressed, or worried.
My style is warm, direct, and grounded. I’m not a “just sit and nod” therapist—I’m actively engaged in helping you understand patterns, shift perspective, and develop practical tools you can use in real life.
I believe you don’t HAVE TO do anything - but you do GET to choose. And learning how to make those choices with clarity and confidence can be incredibly freeing.

Nicole Merrigan, LPA, PLLC
Psychologist, MA, LPA
Life can feel incredibly overwhelming or paralyzing when you are constantly battling intense emotions, past trauma, or the daily chaos of ADHD—especially when those struggles overlap. My approach balances deep self-compassion and practical, real-world skills. My practice combines the highest standard of evidence-based therapies with a warm, deeply human approach. Together, we will build a tailored toolkit.

A little about me
I’m a therapist who gets how overwhelming this stage of life can feel. You’re juggling pressure, expectations, relationships, and figuring out who you are—all at the same time. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I’m not here to judge or “analyze” you.
My style is real, collaborative, and practical. I’ll help you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, and give you tools you can actually use in everyday life—not just in a therapy session.
Why reach out
If you’re tired of overthinking everything, feeling stuck, or reacting in ways you wish you could change, you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
Reaching out is the first step toward feeling more grounded, more confident, and more in control of your life.
Even if you’re not sure where to start—that’s okay. We’ll figure it out together.

Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that change is possible, even when life feels overwhelming. As someone whose mind tends to move fast, dig deep, and resist “fitting in,” I’ve learned firsthand how isolation, frustration, and burnout can grow from being misunderstood.
In my practice, I offer a place of understanding, clarity, and transformation. I help clients map how their unique thinking, energy, and attention patterns affect relationships, work, and daily life. Together, we create strategies and habits that align with who you are—so that your strengths become the foundation for growth, not sources of struggle.
I provide this support virtually across 44 states—and I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are, and helping you move toward what’s next.

LIFE IS A TEAM SPORT...WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER!
MOTIVATE Counseling & Coaching, a mental health and personal improvement practice, helps you get where you want to be. We often view growth and learning in a positive light, but see stress and discomfort negatively. The reality is they are inherently connected. You are the expert of your life, no one is better able to determine what's best for you than you!
Whether past traumas, current stressors, future worries, inability to follow through, or reluctance to take that “next step”...MOTIVATE Counseling & Coaching will help process and develop a healthier understanding of what has occurred in your life, clarify what it is you want, understand the barriers, and overcome them.
