About Kilee
Kilee Mikell is an Alabama-licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with eight years of experience helping adults. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, chronic health conditions, and stress from work, family, or relationships. She also supports those in helping professions who are dealing with burnout or compassion fatigue.
Kilee uses clear, straightforward talk in sessions. She listens closely and helps people name the problems they face. Then she and the client pick practical steps to try between sessions. Conversations are focused and goal-oriented rather than long lectures.
Her work draws on several approaches that fit different situations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test new ways of coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches specific skills for emotion regulation and maintaining relationships. Client-Centered methods keep the conversation anchored in each person's priorities.
Kilee also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools when they suit the client's goals. Mindfulness can help with stress, sleep, and grounding after trauma. Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change behaviors, including substance use or health routines.
Sessions move at a practical pace and focus on what helps in daily life. Kilee guides people through small, measurable steps so progress is easier to see. She encourages clients to bring real problems from their week for discussion and skill practice.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making the client's priorities central to each session. It helps people clarify what matters most and set realistic next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and improve mood or anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and for improving communication in strained relationships.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which approaches match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can change as progress is made or new problems arise.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking because the profile does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in settings closer to their everyday routines. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and what will work best for each person during the initial steps of scheduling.
