Kelliann Maddox, LMHC

Kelliann Maddox is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) licensed in Florida and Indiana with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and major life changes. Kelliann brings a background in mental health and substance use treatment across inpatient and outpatient settings.

She trained with a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from Indiana University and a Master’s degree in Psychology from the University of St. Francis, with concentrations in addiction and mental health counseling. She also completed post-master’s graduate studies in Adlerian and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and earned a post-master’s certificate in Mental Health Counseling in 2023. These studies add to hands-on experience in dual-diagnosis care and adolescent residential treatment.

Kelliann has worked in acute and long-term psychiatric care, outpatient community mental health, and both inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment. That history has shaped how she approaches problems like substance use, grief, and relationship strain that often come with major life transitions. She focuses on practical steps that fit the person’s life.

Her work emphasizes collaboration and respect for the client’s own knowledge about their life. In sessions she helps people identify strengths, clarify values, and set achievable steps toward change. Conversations are direct and aimed at making problems manageable.

Outside of practice, she spends time with horses, cycles, hikes, reads, and enjoys family activities. This personal background informs her appreciation for routine, responsibility, and the ways relationships with animals can matter to recovery and wellbeing.
