Getting to know Kelly Linger

Hello, I’m Kelly, and my therapy centers on a strength-based approach to building resiliency in healing. I am an integrative therapist and I utilize EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing strategies and other approaches in my work to assist clients in healing. I liken my approach to the Japanese concept of “Kintsugi” which means finding strength in imperfection. Kintsugi involves putting broken pottery pieces back together with gold rather than trying to hide the breaks or injuries that have occurred. In our lived experiences, the broken moments are unique to our journeys as individuals. When we work toward healing from the things that have “broken us” we often find that we become something stronger, more resilient, and more beautiful as a result. I earned a Masters Degree in Sociology from The University of Maryland and a Masters in Clinical Counseling and Human Development from Walsh University. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with supervision status as well as a Licensed Social Worker, so I focus on my clients as both individuals and part of a larger family and societal system. I have experience as an adjunct professor at Walsh University and Stark State College, and this finds its way into my counseling in the form of psycho-education. I believe that when people understand why you are asking them to try something, they are more likely to benefit from counseling interventions. I have worked in the fields of Medical Social Work and Treatment Level Foster Care. I counseled as an outpatient therapist in hospitals in both Stark and Summit County. I have over a decade of experience in working with children, adults and elderly clients and enjoy working with a variety of client populations. I completed training through the Center for Deployment Psychology for working with military clients. I am trained in EMDR from the EMDR Institute, founded by Dr. Shapiro. EMDR is a method of trauma treatment that has been recommended by the World Health Organization, the American Psychiatric Association, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Additionally, I completed training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for children and adolescents at The Beck Institute as well as outside training from the Institute in the areas of depression and anxiety. I look forward to walking with you on your healing journey and welcome any questions you might have about beginning therapy.
