About Kilee
Kilee Mikell is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She works with adults dealing with trauma, ADHD, chronic health concerns, relationship strain, and addiction. Her goal is to make clients feel heard and understood without judgment.
Kilee draws on straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She listens first, then helps people identify small steps that lead to clearer thinking and less overwhelm.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on real problems and workable skills rather than jargon. Her style blends client-centered care with cognitive and behavioral tools. That means she follows what matters most to each person while teaching ways to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
She also uses mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior approaches when emotional regulation is a challenge. Kilee brings eight years of clinical experience as an AL LICSW - Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Her background includes helping people who work in high-stress jobs manage burnout and compassion fatigue.
She aims to support steady, sustainable change over time. In sessions she uses a mix of listening, practical exercises, and goal-focused planning. People who feel stuck or overwhelmed can expect a calm, grounded approach that focuses on what they want to change next.
Kilee works collaboratively to build a plan that fits each person’s daily life.
How her approaches adapt to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means conversations start with where the client feels stuck, and the therapist mirrors concerns to build trust and direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems alive. Online CBT often uses brief exercises, worksheets, and in-session planning to practice new skills between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. Those skills can be taught in short modules and practiced in real life, then discussed during video or text check-ins.Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. Kilee works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and daily routine. She adjusts plans as progress is made so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when being off-camera is easier. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and skill practice simple between longer sessions. These options help therapy fit into workdays, caregiving schedules, and other responsibilities.
