I specialize in working with individuals whose substance use has become difficult to manage, as well as those exploring their relationship with alcohol or other drugs. Whether you are seeking recovery, harm reduction, or greater clarity, I provide a nonjudgmental and supportive space where meaningful change can feel both achievable and sustainable.

My approach is grounded in Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helping clients better understand patterns, strengthen coping skills, and make choices aligned with their values. Together, we focus on building insight, developing practical tools, and setting realistic, attainable goals.

I recognize that each person’s path to healing is unique. My role is to support you in defining and working toward a life that feels meaningful, balanced, and aligned with your goals.

I specialize in working with children and adolescents navigating transitions, peer relationships, emotional regulation, and school-related stress. Many of the clients I support feel overwhelmed or misunderstood, and I work closely with families to provide guidance and practical strategies. With a background in education, I help bridge the gap between therapy and school, promoting skills that translate into success at home and in the classroom.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each client. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy, and Play Therapy to create a supportive environment while building effective tools for long-term growth.

I bring over 10 years of counseling experience and more than 20 years in educational settings, offering a unique blend of clinical and real-world expertise. My goal is to help clients and families feel more confident, connected, and equipped to move forward.

My name is Kelly Estrela, and I am currently pursuing my Associate’s degree at CCRI with a concentration in Social Work. This field holds deep personal significance for me, especially following the adoption of my daughter three years ago—an experience that profoundly strengthened my passion for supporting and uplifting others.

In addition to being a full-time student, I work as an Administrative Assistant at Cardinal Counseling Center, a role I take immense pride in. I find purpose and fulfillment in contributing to a space dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and improve their well-being.

I am also a wife and mother who values continuous learning, enjoys cooking, and appreciates spending time outdoors. These roles and interests shape my perspective and reinforce my commitment to personal growth and compassionate service.
