Meet Our Team
Holly McGhee, LICSW
Hi there! I’m Holly McGhee, and I’m passionate about guiding children and adolescents through life’s challenges. As a therapist at Brighter Beginnings by Kairos Counseling, I hold a BA in Psychology and a Master of Social Work, and I’ve spent years honing my skills in various settings, including residential programs, hospitals, and schools.
I know that navigating trauma—whether it’s preventive care, a crisis, or the healing process—can be overwhelming. That’s why my approach is collaborative and empowering. I believe in working alongside my clients to help them discover their own answers and create personalized growth plans.
I’m dedicated to helping young people build confidence, find their purpose, and develop the skills they need to thrive at home, school, and in the community. My therapeutic style is person-centered, strength-based, and holistic. I draw from a variety of modalities, including DBT, Mindfulness, CBT, and Problem-Solving techniques, to support individuals managing depression, anxiety, self-doubt, trauma, and the everyday challenges of our complex world.
Creating a safe and supportive environment is my top priority, where clients can feel empowered to make positive changes in their lives. When I’m not in the office, you can find me enjoying time outdoors, exploring new ideas, or connecting with friends and family. I’m here to support you on your journey, and I look forward to working together to help you achieve your goals!
