Ali Kelly, BSW
Patient Care Coordinator
Guiding Care with Compassion & Expertise
If you've talked to anyone at Inner Journey Healthcare, theres a good chance it was Ali first. She's usually the voice on the phone, the one who makes the whole "walking into a new clinic" thing feel a little less scary. She's been doing this kind of work, medical and mental health, for 20 years now, and she's just really good at meeting people wherever they're at that day. Scared, hopeful, running on empty, whatever it is.
Ali isn't a therapist and she's not doing the medical side of things, but honestly, she's the heart of this place. She loves being the one behind the scenes, making sure everything just works so patients don't have to think about any of it. She's the person who remembers the small stuff, the little details that make you feel like a person and not just a name on a chart, and she'll walk you through what to expect, whether that's a first consult or something like ketamine assisted psychotherapy or Spravato, without making you feel rushed or lost.
She knows what it's like to really need someone steady in your corner. So that's who she tries to be for other people now. There's something about holding all the little details together so nobody else has to that genuinely makes her happy.
She's also just a naturally curious person, always tinkering, always learning something new, and she loves being both the one teaching and the one still figuring things out.
When she's not here keeping everything running, Ali's honestly dreaming about a remote cabin with high speed internet, no phone service, and a genealogy research project she's fully obsessed with.
“I know how much courage it takes just to make that first call. You don't need to have the right words or all the answers figured out before you reach out to us. My job is to make that first step feel a little less overwhelming, to listen, to help you make sense of your options, and to make sure you feel like a person here, not a name on a chart. Whatever brought you to us, I'm glad you're here, and we'll walk through it together.”
