Kelly Conlon, LPC

Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, eating and body image problems, and life changes. Kelly works with adults facing grief, trauma, addiction, ADHD, career strain, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Kelly practiced in a range of settings before offering online care. Her background includes work with college students, people affected by Alzheimer’s, and clients in hospital, residential eating disorder, and outpatient substance abuse programs. That varied experience shaped a flexible approach to common life challenges.

In sessions Kelly keeps things straightforward and practical. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take workable steps toward them.

Kelly centers sessions on the person in front of her. She takes a client-centered stance and adapts strategies to each person’s needs and personality. She aims to balance direct skill teaching with empathy and occasional lightness when appropriate.

She also brings attachment-focused thinking to relationship and family concerns, helping people see patterns that shape closeness and distance. Many people come wanting tools they can use between sessions, and Kelly emphasizes practical skills for daily life.

Outside of work she enjoys hiking, cooking, travel, and time with family and her pets. Her style is warm, respectful, and focused on helping clients build confidence and steady progress.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of acting. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and worries that get in the way of daily life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another approach she uses to clarify values and guide small, meaningful steps even when emotions are hard to change. That can help with chronic stress, low mood, and living with urges or cravings.

She also brings attachment-focused ideas into work on relationships and family patterns, helping people recognize how early bonds shape current trust and communication. Choosing a single approach isn't required; Kelly collaborates with clients to find what fits their goals and personality and adjusts methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations for deeper work and role-play. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients use brief messages for coaching, homework check-ins, or to share wins between sessions. These options make scheduling easier around work, caregiving, or travel while still allowing therapists and licensed professionals to focus on practical skills and progress.
