I’m Kelly O’Horo, Relational EMDR Therapist and trainer. I’m a Mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we’re all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the ”life stuff” and ”emotional vocabulary” that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I’ve learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!

I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There’s a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.

    The Power of Saying NO

    The Power of Saying NO

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Have you ever found yourself agreeing to something you didn't want to do, simply because you couldn't muster the courage to say "no"? If so, you're not alone. Many of us struggle with the idea of rejecting requests, often at the expense of our own well-being. But what if I told you that saying "no" could actually be one of the most empowering things you could do for yourself? Yes, you heard it right! Learning to say "no" is not just about being assertive, it's about respecting your own time, energy, and personal limits. It's the Power of Saying No!

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! The world has become increasingly complex over the past 50 years. Until the mid-20th century, the transition to adulthood was relatively well-structured for most people. One of the defining developmental processes that occur during the unique stage of emerging adulthood is the emergence of adult identity, or the subjective sense of adulthood. So today we talk to Collin, to bring a sense of perspective of someone in their early 20's and what they experience in todays world and that story of their own identity.

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an emerging approach to mental health treatment that offers valuable solutions for those struggling with various challenging issues. By combining the administration of ketamine, a medication with unique properties, and psychotherapy techniques, KAP enables therapists and clients to address deeply-rooted mental health concerns more effectively. KAP has demonstrated promising results for individuals grappling with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), paving the way for its integration into modern clinical practice.

    Focus Frequency: Navigating ADD/ADHD

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Individuals with ADD or ADHD have a difficult time paying attention and focusing, especially if they’re uninterested, are easily distracted, and can also be impulsive or disruptive. ADHD also includes the physical symptoms of hyperactivity or excessive restlessness. While the symptoms seen to be fairly straight forward, diagnosing ADD/ADHD can be complex. A person must exhibit a large number of symptoms that prove to cause significant problems with daily life, throughout their life, and in multiple settings. Let's talk about how to navigate ADD/ADHD!
