Kellee Purdy, LCSW
Introduction
“There is something worse out there than being sad, and that is being alone and being sad.” –Ted Lasso Everyone goes through tough times, some more than most. Whether your struggles are about the present, the past, or a mix of both, it’s certainly easier to manage if you don’t have to go through it alone. As a seasoned companion of people in distress, I offer nearly 20 years experience as a therapist, working in agency and private practice settings, with a wide variety of people and problems. Early on in my career, I noticed the connection between people’s current distress and their difficult past experiences, so I specialized in trauma recovery, including EMDR and Parts Work. These are among my primary tools for helping people to overcome what is holding them back. At work and in my off time, I thrive on forming deep and meaningful connections with others. People often describe me as calm and grounded, and they admire my knack for plausible optimism. I grew up in Juneau, and I'm so glad to be back after 20 plus years down south. I’m a mom, a wife, and a gender-affirming family member of an awesome trans person. I am available for in-person services in Juneau, and telehealth throughout the state of Alaska.
