About Kelly

Kelly Brock is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Pennsylvania and an Iowa Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with ten years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem concerns, and depression. Kelly uses clear, practical conversations to help people understand what's keeping them stuck and what steps to try next.

Sessions begin with a focused look at what is happening now and where the client wants to go. Kelly asks concrete questions about daily life, relationships, and routines. Together they set flexible goals and simple steps that fit into everyday schedules.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh and a Bachelor of Education in Family and Human Services from the University of Oregon. She has experience in community mobile crisis intervention and working with people who have serious and persistent mental health diagnoses.

Kelly describes work with anxiety, depression, complex PTSD, addictions, grief, mental and sexual abuse, chronic homelessness, and reintegration after incarceration. She draws on several approaches to help people change thoughts, try new behaviors, and reframe personal stories.

In sessions she stays direct and practical. Clients can expect questions, reflection, and collaborative planning. The emphasis is on learning usable skills and making steady, manageable changes over time.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions. It helps people who notice repeating relationship problems or strong fears around closeness.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what a person says. It gives space to sort through feelings and helps clients decide what changes matter most for them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, shift unhelpful thinking, and build new habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kelly will collaborate with clients to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort. This is an ongoing decision and plans can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. The practical upside of remote work is flexibility - sessions can fit around work, appointments, and caregiving. Phone or video can make shorter check-ins easier, reduce travel time, and allow sessions during a lunch break or between errands. Ask about the session options available when you complete the matching questionnaire before scheduling.
