Bre Keller, LMSW (she/her)

In our lives, we are given experiences- some we choose for ourselves, and some we do not. Some of these experiences create hurt, stress, or even trauma that may feel overwhelming, even unbearable at times. I want you to know that, if you are there, that is not where you have to stay. As a therapist, my desire is to partner with my clients in their journey towards healing wounds so they can become a healthy, integrated self, and prevent their pain from becoming someone else's hurt. We all possess wisdom and strength, and it is my honor to give my clients the room to access these inner resources and, with permission, guide them towards integrating it into their future thoughts and choices. I have had the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life, and I enjoy creating a space where all feel safe and accepted in the midst of life's messiness.

As an undergraduate, I earned a BA in Psychology and a BA in Religion, and moved on to earn my Masters in Social Work from Grand Valley State University a few years later. I have experience working with the foster care system, co-occurring disorders, substance use disorders and addiction, as well as addressing mental health concerns of depression, anxiety, and ADHD. My training and experience has enabled me to integrate therapeutic techniques specifically addressing the needs of each client, including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, harm reduction and motivational interviewing. I am also earning my certification as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and I am fully trained in EMDR. It is my hope that therapy will offer opportunities for healing, growth, and a thriving life. If you are interested in inviting me to be a part of your journey, you are invited to reach out at any time.
