It is nice to meet you! My name is Kelly Ready (she/her) and I am originally from the Washington, D.C. area. I graduated with my Bachelor’s Degree in Economics & International Studies from Northwestern University, and completed my Master of Social Work at Arizona State University.

As someone with OCD lived experience, I am passionate about supporting those with OCD and anxiety. Research shows that up to 10,000,000 Americans live with OCD, yet only 1 in 6 receive a diagnosis. Only 2% of Americans living with OCD receive ERP, the gold-standard treatment for OCD. Those are some astounding figures! My hope is to put a small dent in that number by providing high-quality, evidence-based care to those living with anxiety and OCD here in Denver, Colorado.

I am also passionate about treating trauma and deeply understand how trauma can shape how we see ourselves & the world. I believe it is our birthright to feel safe in our bodies, homes and communities. I have seen just how impactful evidence-based modalities like EMDR have been in transforming clients’ lives and helping them let go of the past and step into a brighter future.

When I am not sitting in my therapist’s chair, you may find me running, biking or hiking & enjoying all the natural wonders of this beautiful state, spending time with family or friends, tending to my plants or enjoying a warm cup of coffee with a good book.
