Therapist in Brighton, Michigan,
Kelly Ott, LLMSW, CAADC

I graduated from Wayne State University with a Bachelor in Social Work in 2019 and a Masters in Social Work in 2020. Concurrent with my Masters degree, I also received a Certification in Alcohol and Drug Abuse Studies. In 2021, I received my CAADC. I am currently an outpatient therapist providing mental health services. Previously, I worked at an inpatient treatment center for men, struggling with co-occurring disorders.

My philosophy of care represents individuality while upholding moral and ethical standards. Care, in the therapeutic sense, should acknowledge the value an individual has to offer and provide services according to the person and their own goals set forth.

I take pride in my ability to build a strong rapport with individuals within a short amount of time, providing both trust and empathy along the way. My clinical experience has shown me that everyone should be heard without judgement. My goal is to provide each individual with a safe place to heal from prior experiences and to explore current ones in order to welcome change and growth. Sometimes, therapy can be hard and uncomfortable; however, I am willing to walk with you through this journey to help you transition into being the person you envision. As we work together, you will see the benefits and enjoyment from therapy.
