Philosphy: Sexuality is an aspect of the self that intertwines with our physical, mental, and spiritual selves. It is also a medium through which we can experience and express many things, including pain, pleasure, joy, sorrow, rage, contentment, love, hate, guilt, affirmation, and confusion. As a professional, it is my responsibility to help individuals become empowered to address their sexuality-related concerns and identify opportunities for healing, growth, and pleasure.
Biography: Kelly currently serves as Chief Operating Officer of The Sexual Health Network. She also teaches teaches psychology/social science courses at Delaware County Community College in southeastern Pennsylvania. In the past, she has served as a therapist at a child advocacy center, a sexuality consultant in the Philadelphia MH/MR system, the clinical coordinator of a residential program for sex offenders with cognitive disabilities, and the executive director of a Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program. She is a member of many professional organizations, including the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, & Therapists (AASECT), the American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children (APSAC), the International Society on Child Abuse & Neglect (ISPCAN), and the Children's Rights and Gay & Lesbian Rights subcommittees of the Pennsylvania Bar Association.
