Telehealth Psychologist for Burnout, Chronic Illness & Nervous System Health
The Space Between Coping & Healing
Hi! I’m Erin Kelly, PhD, a licensed psychologist specializing in the intersection of psychological and physical health. I work with people navigating chronic pain, chronic illness, burnout, over-functioning, nervous system overwhelm, and the emotional weight of being human. My approach is grounded in science, informed by mindfulness, and shaped by the belief that healing is rarely linear.

More than Symptom Management.
Many of the people I work with have already done a lot of work on themselves. They've read the books, tried the coping skills, and spent years searching for answers. What they're looking for isn't another quick fix. They're looking for a way to relate differently to pain, illness, stress, uncertainty, or a life that no longer feels quite like their own.
My work blends evidence-based psychology with mindfulness, nervous system awareness, and deep respect for each person's lived experience. I believe healing is often less about fixing ourselves and more about learning how to meet what is here with greater clarity, flexibility, and self-compassion.

• Your symptoms make sense medically, but not emotionally.
• You're exhausted from pushing through.
• You want support that feels thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded.
• You're looking for something deeper than symptom management alone.
