Therapist – Kelly Patton, LMHC
At 7901 4th Street North, Suite 308, in St. Petersburg, Florida, Kelly Patton operates a private therapy practice offering individual therapy, couples therapy, personal growth counseling, and group retreats. She holds credentials as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), a Certified Imago Therapist at the Advanced Clinician level, and a Certified Daring Way and Rising Strong Facilitator. The practice reflects more than 27 years of professional experience in the mental health field.
Primary therapeutic modalities include Imago Relationship Therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and facilitation through the Daring Way and Rising Strong programs. These frameworks are applied across relationship concerns, personal development work, trauma processing, and work-life balance challenges. The clinical focus on relationships is stated clearly on the site, which describes relationships as “a primary source for our joy and happiness” and frames therapy around intentional engagement and purposeful living.
A notable feature of the practice is the retreats and training offerings, described as a newer addition to the services available. These include Daring Way retreats and Rising Strong retreats, which provide group-format experiences that complement the individual and couples session options at the practice.
The site indicates that sessions are conducted in-person at the St. Petersburg office. Telehealth availability is not specified on the page. No information about insurance acceptance or specific self-pay fee schedules appears on the site.
The practice’s website frames therapy around learning vital relationship skills and engaging life intentionally, with an emphasis on the view that relationships are a primary driver of wellbeing. Both the individual clinical sessions and the group retreat format aim to provide practical tools that clients can apply beyond the therapy room.
Contact is available by phone at 727-641-0435, with a contact form also provided through the website for prospective clients. No year of establishment is listed on the site, though the clinician’s stated experience spans more than 27 years of professional practice in the mental health and relationship counseling field.
