Kelly Bennett, LMSW, CASAC-T

As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), my foremost priority is to deliver compassionate, ethical, and person-centered care to every individual I have the privilege of working with. I recognize that life presents a wide range of challenges whether they stem from mental health struggles, substance use, family dynamics, trauma, or socio-economic barriers and I am deeply committed to supporting clients as they navigate these obstacles. I approach my work with empathy, understanding that every individual’s story is unique and shaped by their lived experiences.

I graduated with my master in social work from Adelphi University. I have also obtained my CASAC-T and I am a certified grief and loss counselor. I am currently working towards obtaining my doctorate in social work from Capella University. Throughout my career in social work, I have learned the value of meeting clients where they are, without judgment, and empowering them to recognize their own resilience. I firmly believe that every person possesses inherent strengths and capabilities, even in their most difficult moments. My role is to help individuals identify and build upon those strengths, fostering personal growth, stability, and self-determination.

In every interaction, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, valued, and respected. I am dedicated to advocating for their needs, promoting access to resources, and working collaboratively with them to develop individualized strategies for achieving their goals.
