If anxiety, depression, or the weight of life's hardest seasons has been running the show, you deserve a therapist who treats both the racing thoughts and the body's alarm system.

Together we'll build practical skills, sort through what is keeping you stuck, and move you toward real, lasting changes.

Imagine Recovery Counseling LLC (Kristen Gidel Kelly)
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S, LICDC, CTTS, Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant
Kristen Gidel Kelly: FOUNDER, Imagine Recovery Counseling
The first thing you need to know about me is that I am not your Traditional Therapist (I’m an EMDR and DBT nerd and super passionate about what I do!) and everyone that works for me is an extension of me and my values. I value both the science and the art, creative, and personalized experience of therapy. I value both ethical practice and the need to adapt the science that I have to fit the needs of the human being sitting in front of me.
My values regarding client care:
Trauma is something that happens to you, it’s not part of your identity. I work with trauma because I believe people can change and heal from their experiences. I seek to empower people to heal and grow and I truly believe you can. I have lived experience in most of the conditions that I treat or I have worked with them for a long time and have extensive training. You will not intimate me with your experience. I often tell my clients, “If I don’t know something, I will find out”. Many of the clients that come see me have had a prior therapy experience that did not go well. While I always remain humble in what I do and let folks know “You are in the driver’s seat”, I want to make it clear that I have 18 years of experience in what I do and I’m always learning and consulting with experts to be the best version of myself for my clients and my staff. I go to my own therapy and work on my own stuff. Lastly, it is part of my professional and personal ethics to respond to all client referrals within 24 hours. I feel strongly that if you reach out, I will respond. I keep our wait list intentionally low because I do not feel it’s ethical for folks to wait a long time to get help.
My values regarding my group practice:
I worked in community mental health and government for 17 years. Many times, I was working in a toxic, oppressive workplace and was extremely burned out. It is highly important to me to provide a healing and safe environment for my staff. I pride myself on hiring folks that are deeply aligned with my values, highly skilled and trained (it’s not always about years of experience!), and have the self respect to expect to be taken care of by their boss. I believe it’s important to always be learning. I teach my staff everything I know and provide them with free consultation and training. It is the privilege and a responsibility of a boss to take care of their people. If you work with my therapists, please know that I am taking care of them so they can skillfully take care of you! A lot of folks that come to work with me have been burned out by their previous employer and want something more. I value providing a safe, comfortable, trauma sensitive, diversity/inclusive, therapist centered working environment. Burnout will be assessed and taken seriously and consultation support is provided. It’s so important to me, I write this language into my contracts.

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.

Megan Obermeyer Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPCC-S
Taking a moment to slow down and connect with your inner self can feel hard and even scary in the fast moving world we live in. My goal as a therapist is to create a chunk of time where you can slow down, settle in, and grow deeper in your connection and understanding with yourself. I work to create that space for you, as well as supporting through actionable steps and tools to help increase regulation in your day to day life.
