Professional. Hopeful. Authentically Christian.
Kelli Burns, M.S.Ed., LPCC, BCPCC.
It can be quite a challenge finding a therapist who will deliver qualified professional counseling and who is authentically Christian. Young people today are experiencing unbelievable pressures that can result in changes in mood, behavior, and relationships. Many parents are hesitant to seek professional help due to fears that secular counseling will lead them away from the Christian values that they hold near and dear.
Hi, I’m Kelli and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and a Board-Certified Christian Counselor, specializing in the treatment of children, teens and young adults. This career choice began as a calling to help young people with the emotional and relational challenges of life. After 20+ years of counseling experience and advanced degrees, I am more convinced than ever that understanding the spiritual needs are key to genuine change and lasting contentment. I also realize that people need practical tools for the daily struggles of life. With me, the psychological and the spiritual are integrated, not separated.
I have been a wife for 30+ years and a mother of 2 adult children. As a parent, I get it and want you to know that there is hope. After those sometimes tumultuous years of parenting, comes the silver lining of relationship with adult children, even grandchildren!
If you would like to talk further about your specific concerns with your child, give me a call at 419-482-8600.
Happy Retirement Havi!!!
Havi has worked with me for the past 4 years as my personal dog and certified therapy dog. She has been a faithful companion and a wonderful support to counseling kids. She has earned her retirement and is enjoying being a stay at home dog. We can continue to connect and relate to animals through experiences outside of Havi. Please share about your own pets or desired pets and know that I do understand what a powerful bond we can have with them.
