Kelly McDaniel

Hi, I’m Kelly.

For those of you who don’t know me, I’d like to introduce myself. To start, this website is my professional “self”. While I bring my whole self to the work that I do, I will focus on the evolution of my practice in this section.

As much as I love the power of language, I prefer clinical work where much of what is “said” requires no words.
