About Kiley
Kiley Fields is a Licensed Master Social Worker who focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy. She centers sessions on what people are struggling with now and keeps things relaxed so talking feels easier. Kiley draws on five years of direct clinical experience and additional community work to support people facing stress and anxiety.
She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and try small changes in behavior.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is also part of her approach when people want to build values-based goals and tolerate difficult feelings. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. Kiley has worked in a community mental health setting and has experience across many concerns, including depression, ADHD, autism spectrum differences, and caregiver strain.
She has also provided individual and group work in substance use settings and designed behavior plans for people with challenging behaviors. Sessions tend to be informal and client-led. Kiley aims to reduce the worry many feel about starting therapy by keeping the tone friendly and nonjudgmental.
She uses examples and simple exercises rather than complicated theory. She offers remote sessions while living in Michigan and speaks English. Her lived experience supporting family members with ADHD informs practical strategies she suggests for daily life.
Outside of work she spends time with family and a large group of pets.
How these approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. Online sessions can focus on real-life goals and small experiments to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy teaches ways to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; this often leads to simple worksheets and short practice tasks that fit well into remote sessions. Motivational Interviewing uses gentle questions to draw out a person’s own reasons for change and can be woven into any of the session formats Kiley offers.Finding the best approach is a team effort. Kiley will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers a range of practical options: video calls for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging for brief check-ins or flexible pacing. These formats make scheduling easier around work, family, or daily routines and allow therapists to share worksheets, exercises, and reminders that support progress between meetings.
