About Keli

Keli Karbowski is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem problems, addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and anger. Her practice also includes support for mood disorders, ADHD, bipolar issues, and related difficulties.

Keli keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens first, then helps people identify small changes that make daily life easier. Conversations focus on problem-solving, building coping skills, and noticing patterns that keep problems repeating. She uses tools from several familiar approaches to guide work in the room.

Her background includes long-term clinical work with people recovering from post-traumatic stress and from substance problems. She also helps those dealing with isolation, communication problems, and the fallout of abandonment or adoption experiences. That experience informs how she approaches issues such as impulsivity, obsessive behaviors, and self-harm concerns.

Keli often pairs skill practice with goal-oriented sessions. Clients can expect direct feedback, practical strategies, and space to talk about difficult feelings. She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive-behavioral tools and mindfulness exercises when these fit the client's goals.

Sessions also draw on motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to address readiness for change and to set clear next steps. Payments vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Approaches used and how online sessions fit

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. It helps people feel heard and guides them to make choices that fit their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change patterns that fuel anger, anxiety, or depression. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to help people notice reactions and reduce reactivity in tense moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what matters most to the client, try methods that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. This collaborative process aims to build skills that can be used between sessions for handling frustration, resentment, and flashes of anger.

Confirm current session options before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to practice skills in real-life settings and return to the next session with questions and observations to refine the plan.
