Kelli Mahmud, APCC

Therapist

"My journey into the mental health field was deeply personal. Having experienced the transformative power of counseling in my own life, I became impassioned about extending that same opportunity to others. I recognized a profound need for individuals to receive guidance and support in their quest to become the best versions of themselves. This realization fueled my commitment to establishing my career in counseling and providing accessible, compassionate services aimed at empowering individuals to navigate life's challenges and thrive.

The most fulfilling aspect of my job is guiding individuals towards their destined path and witnessing their growth as they embrace newfound self-awareness."
