Kelly Correa is a psychologist who supports adults throughout California in managing life's complexities with compassion and research-supported clinical care. She treats individuals across the lifespan, including young adults, those in midlife, and seniors, ensuring therapeutic interventions are relevant to each person's unique developmental stage. Her clinical work is heavily focused on helping patients navigate ADHD, insomnia, and various sleep-related difficulties, as well as the emotional challenges that often accompany chronic medical conditions. By utilizing practical tools and evidence-based techniques, she assists individuals in strengthening their focus, improving sleep quality, and building sustainable coping strategies that promote both physical and mental wellness. Her broader clinical expertise includes the treatment of anxiety, depression, and PTSD, with a significant background in supporting women, military veterans, and LGBTQ+ adults. She draws from several therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, tailoring her approach to meet the specific needs of each patient. Beginning her practice in 2016, she views therapy as a collaborative and validating partnership where patients are encouraged to grow and build emotional flexibility. Her goal is to help individuals identify unhelpful patterns and reconnect with their core values to create meaningful change. In her personal time, she stays grounded through mindful movement and strength training, explores local San Diego spots, and enjoys discovering new music and shows with friends and family.
