Kellie Hatch, MA, RMHCI

Who she works with

Two groups, mostly. The first is women whose lives look entirely handled from the outside — the career, the house, the calendar that runs on time — and who are quietly cycling through the same relationship outcome for the third or fourth time. Capable people are often the last to get help, because competence is very good camouflage.

The second is couples: rebuilding after betrayal, stuck in a communication loop that has stopped producing anything, or trying to work out whether there is enough left to keep going. Some arrive in an acute stretch. Some have been drifting quietly for years.

Beyond that, the practice regularly sees clients working through anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma and PTSD, divorce and separation, parenting stress, grief and loss, boundaries, burnout, and career or identity change.

How she works

The premise is that patterns are not character flaws — they are old solutions that used to work. The work is finding where a pattern was learned, understanding what it was protecting you from, and building something that fits the life you have now rather than the one that installed it.

In practice that means the approach is matched to the person rather than the reverse. Some clients want the fastest possible route to a single stuck belief, which is what Rapid Transformational Therapy is built for. Some want forward-focused and practical, which is Solution Focused Therapy. Some need to understand the origin before anything else will hold, which is Psychodynamic Therapy. Some talk far more freely walking a shoreline than seated across a room, which is Walk & Talk Beach Therapy.

Therapy doesn't have to be boring, and it doesn't have to take forever.

What stays constant is directness. Clients are told what is being observed, sessions have a point, and progress is something you are both explicitly tracking rather than hoping for.

Credentials and training

Florida registration can be checked independently on the Department of Health licence verification search at flhealthsource.gov — something worth doing for any clinician you are considering, as described in the guide to choosing a therapist in Naples.
