    Kelli Smith, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, owns Big Sky Counseling, a private practice dedicated to providing evidence-based care for clients experiencing OCD and related anxiety disorders, located in Great Falls, Montana.
    Kelli has a background in treating eating disorders and began to see co-occurring OCD in clients she treated during her student internship and early employment.

She is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), among other evidence-based therapies (such as ICBT).

Practical Psych

Great information and enjoyed listening. Kyra, you have the perfect voice for a podcast! I look forward to listening to your future podcasts.

Cassrc ,

Great and easy listening therapy podcast.

Lots of great information in a bite sized episode. Kyrie makes you feel as if you are in her room and you get to peak inside a therapy session. She brings in some humor and personal experiences which makes the podcast very easy to listen to.
