About Meredith
Meredith Kellman is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and changes in life. She draws on 18 years of experience to support practical steps toward feeling steadier and more confident. She focuses on clear, direct conversations and simple skills people can use between sessions.
Meredith invites clients to describe what is hardest for them and then works with them to set small, achievable goals.
How Meredith works
Her style is straightforward and calm, with attention to what a person needs day to day. Meredith uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, commonly called EMDR, to address upsetting memories and post-traumatic stress. She also helps people build coping skills for chronic pain, illness, and the stress that follows disasters or first responder work.
The aim is to reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of control. She pays particular attention to grief, life purpose, and the strain that can come in midlife. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and practical ways to get there.
Meredith encourages gradual steps so progress feels manageable. People who work with her often leave sessions with concrete next steps and ways to practice new habits. She offers telephone, video, chat, and text messaging formats to make ongoing work easier to fit into everyday life.
Meredith is based in New Jersey and sees clients in English.

Online support options
EMDR and practical therapies offered online
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method that helps people process upsetting memories so those memories feel less distressing. It is often used for post-traumatic stress and strong reactions tied to past events.Alongside EMDR, Meredith emphasizes building everyday coping skills for anxiety, grief, chronic pain, and life transitions. These sessions teach concrete steps people can try between meetings, such as grounding techniques, pacing strategies for pain, and planning small behavior changes.
Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. Meredith works together with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan as needed. She explains options clearly and checks in about comfort and progress throughout treatment.
Online therapy makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Video calls let therapists and clients use visual cues and do guided EMDR safely. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or a good fit for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for ongoing encouragement and quick skill practice between sessions. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and changing routines.
