KellyFisher – True Heart Therapy

Hi, it's nice to meet you!

I'm Kelly Fisher, and I'm glad you're here.

What is a fun fact about myself?
I might be the only person in the history of the world to attend Lewis and Clark’s undergraduate college, law school, and graduate school.

What can you expect as my client?

I am an open-minded, nonjudgmental, and empathetic listener. I would like to meet you where you are, explore where you want to be, and collaboratively strategize ways to get you there. As an MFT in training I bring a relational/systemic lens to the work we do, always looking for the ways relationship systems can function better for the individuals inside them.

Who am I outside of therapy?

Outside of therapy I am a mom to two tweens, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, and friend to many excellent people. My favorite outside of therapy activities are hiking/backpacking, yoga, gardening, cooking, live music, attending festivals, and travel.

Pronouns: She/Her

How did I become a therapist?

I became fascinated with the field of psychology in high school, majored in psychology in college, and for a while anticipated becoming a counselor to kids. Instead I detoured to law school and practiced employment law for many moons. I began plotting my return to psychology-adjacent work during Covid, finally took the plunge to return to grad school in 2023, and have felt more gratified by that decision every single day.

I am a third year master’s student in Lewis and Clark’s Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy program, specializing in sexuality. I will graduate in the summer of 2026, and my educational and clinical experiences thus far have focused on couples, with an emphasis on issues involving sex and intimacy.

My bachelor’s degree is in psychology with a minor in environmental studies from Dartmouth College. I also have a J.D. from Lewis and Clark Law School, with a certificate in environmental law.

While I am just beginning my official therapy journey, I was an eating disorder peer advisor and mentor through the Big Brother/Big Sister program in college. Albeit in a different role, as a lawyer for many years I have counseled clients through a lot of emotionally challenging situations. At middle age myself, I also have the personal experience of having navigated big transitions at many stages of life.

My practice focuses on couples and individuals wanting to discuss relational issues, with an emphasis on sex and intimacy. Within that realm I don’t really have an “ideal” client; I am open to seeing people at all starting points, facing relational issues like diminished connection and communication struggles or sexual issues including mismatched libido, sexual acceptance, and infidelity. I specifically welcome LGBTQIA+, kinky, and nonmonogamous clients.
