Kelly Norton, LCSW, CADC, MSW

Psychotherapist
2124 Ogden Ave, Aurora, IL
Kelly Norton, LCSW, CADC, supports children, adolescents, and adults across Illinois who are ready to create meaningful change in their lives. Through individual and group therapy at LifeStance Health, she helps clients navigate emotional challenges, build coping skills, and overcome obstacles that interfere with personal growth and well-being. Her approach is collaborative and direct, offering both support and strategies to help people move forward with clarity and confidence. Kelly specializes in treating anxiety, substance use concerns, and trauma-related disorders. She provides a structured yet empathetic environment where individuals can examine thought patterns, shift behaviors, and manage emotional distress. With advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), she tailors each session to meet the client’s needs, whether managing day-to-day stressors or unpacking deeper-rooted issues. She also offers couples and family therapy, helping loved ones strengthen their communication and resilience. Kelly is particularly passionate about working with clients navigating addiction, criminal justice involvement, and trauma. With extensive experience supporting individuals in recovery and those reentering their communities after legal system involvement, she brings insight, compassion, and evidence-based tools to support long-term change. Her work with trauma survivors integrates EMDR and mindfulness-based interventions to help clients reclaim a sense of safety, identity, and self-worth. She works with diverse populations including individuals with developmental disabilities, those on the autism spectrum, and members of the LGBTQ+ and veteran communities. Her inclusive practice emphasizes advocacy and accessibility, shaped in part by personal experience advocating for her youngest daughter, who is on the autism spectrum. When she’s not in the therapy room, Kelly enjoys watching Green Bay Packers football, competing in long-distance races, and spending time with her husband and two daughters. She’s equally comfortable discussing mental health strategies or fantasy football rankings.
