Therapy available in Louisville, KY -and virtually throughout Kentucky, Florida and Texas
You’re the one who keeps it all going. But inside, it’s exhausting.
You’ve always been the responsible one—the doer, the planner, the helper. On the outside, you seem capable, organized, maybe even calm. But inside, anxiety and stress rarely quiet down. You replay conversations, second-guess decisions, and feel like nothing you do is quite “enough.” You're often praised for how much you handle—but no one sees the toll it takes.
Maybe you’re a teen who feels pressure to be perfect, scared to disappoint anyone, constantly overwhelmed by emotions that feel too big to name. Or you’re an adult who others depend on—at work, at home—but who feels stuck, anxious, or disconnected inside.
Even when you're successful, it still feels like you're just barely holding it all together.
You might be:
A high achiever who feels like rest is never truly earned
A deep thinker who gets lost in loops of "what ifs"
A big feeler who was told you're “too sensitive” or “too much”
A parent watching your child or teen struggle with anxiety or perfectionism and not sure how to help
Someone carrying old wounds or trauma you’ve never had time to heal
You’ve probably tried pushing through, staying busy, or being harder on yourself. But it’s just not working anymore.
You want relief—but more than that, you want to understand why things feel so hard, and how to finally feel like yourself again.
I am are here to listen deeply, help you understand what’s beneath the surface, and guide you toward real change with compassion and skill.
At Kelly Family Therapy, I specialize in therapy for anxiety therapy, trauma, and perfectionism. My work centers on helping high achievers, sensitive teens, and deeply-feeling individuals find relief from stress, overwhelm, and self-criticism — so they can feel calmer, more confident, and more connected to what matters most.
