Kelli Christ
Child & Adolescent Therapist
B.A. in Psychology, Minor in Child Health and Well-being
M.A. in Clinical Mental
I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Community Counseling at Loyola University Chicago, with a focus on Clinical Mental Health. I am passionate about supporting children and adolescents as they navigate challenges such as anxiety, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. I have many years of experience working with children of all ages, including as a preschool teacher and camp counselor. These experiences have helped me develop creative ways to engage each child or teen in therapy by tailoring activities to their interests and strengths.
My approach to therapy is rooted in kindness, patience, and empathy. I believe that therapy should be a welcoming and encouraging space where children and teens can express themselves authentically and always feel heard. My goal is to create an environment where every client and their parents feel supported, understood, and confident in their journey. In addition, I strive to make therapy a space that children and teens feel excited and comfortable coming to
My Focus: Anxiety, OCD, ADHD and Emotional Regulation
