Hi, I’m Colleen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).

My practice, Choosing Yourself Counseling, was born out of a theme I saw again and again in my work with clients: so many people know what they need, want, or value, but feel stuck putting themselves last. They find themselves pulled in different directions by self-doubt, perfectionism, fear of disappointing others, overwhelming responsibilities, or the expectations placed on them by family, work, and society.

My passion is helping clients understand what is keeping them stuck and supporting them as they build the confidence to make choices that align with who they are and the life they want to create. Together, we work to challenge old patterns, develop new skills, and move toward what matters most.

One of the most meaningful parts of my work is watching clients discover that the things they long for—greater peace, stronger relationships, more confidence, freedom from anxiety, or a more fulfilling life—may be more attainable than they ever imagined. Therapy can help you reconnect with your strengths, trust yourself more fully, and begin choosing yourself in ways that feel authentic, intentional, and aligned with your values.

Colleen Keller, LCSW

I am a licensed psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience treating OCD, anxiety, and relationship concerns. I offer in-person therapy in Trumansburg, NY and online therapy for clients in NY, PA, NJ, and DE.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. I draw from CBT, ACT, ERP, and Inference-Based CBT for OCD, as well as Gottman Method and EFT-informed work with couples. Treatment is tailored to the person in front of me, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.

You may look like you have it together on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted from overthinking, second-guessing yourself, and trying to get everything right. I help adults and couples move out of patterns of anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, self-doubt, and disconnection so they can feel more grounded, confident, and connected.

Clients often come to me wanting both compassion and clarity. My style is warm, thoughtful, and direct. I will help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck while also supporting you in making meaningful changes outside of session.
