Maegan Kelley, MSW
Clinical Therapist
I have over 14 years of clinical experience in working with individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues. I specialize in working with adults, adolescents, and youth with addiction, mental health, PTSD, grief/loss, and trauma issues. I also have experience working with women on fertility and various women’s issues. My philosophy of practice is to provide a strengths-based, individualized, and solution focused therapy, while also utilizing motivational interviewing techniques.
I graduated cum laude from Curry College with a Bachelor’s degree in Counseling Psychology, and a double minor in Creative Writing and Theater, before earning my Master’s degree in Social Work from Wheelock College.
For the past 11 years, I have worked with adults and adolescents as an addiction specialist at Adcare Hospital in Worcester. I have also worked in other settings such as MCI Framingham, inpatient rehab facilities for addiction treatment, and in various other mental health settings. I also have spent time working with children, couples, and families providing counseling. In my undergraduate work as a clinical intern, I worked with preschool-aged children providing play therapy in a Montessori school. For my graduate work as a clinical therapist, I interned at the Kitty Dukakis Treatment Center at the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital, and also worked for Advocates Counseling working with adults.
I strive to meet all my clients where they are in treatment and motivate them to create goals and work to achieve them through therapy. My philosophy is to use my experiences in both my practice and life to help develop a relationship built on mutual trust. When I’m not at work, I like to spend quality time with my family. You can find me relaxing by the lake or participating in local theater productions.
