About Kelly
Kelly Conlon is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Georgia with eight years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, eating and body image issues, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, and related areas such as ADHD and depression.
Kelly keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), attachment-based work, and a client-centered stance. Sessions focus on clear goals, learning skills, and trying small changes between meetings.
Her background includes a bachelor’s degree in Childhood and Family Development from the University of Georgia and a master’s in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. She has worked in mental health hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder programs, outpatient substance use treatment, and private practice settings.
In sessions she often helps people sort relationship patterns, manage anxiety, address eating and body image struggles, and navigate life transitions. The work can include learning behavioral skills, practicing new ways of relating, and building routines that support mood and focus.
Outside of clinical work she spends time hiking, reading, cooking, and being with family and pets. She blends practical planning with occasional humor to keep the work grounded and manageable.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then choose actions that match their values; this can be useful for persistent anxiety and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with behavioral experiments, which can reduce social worry and improve confidence. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help with intimacy, communication, and family problems.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Kelly will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and challenges change.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let them avoid travel time. Online work can make it simpler to practice skills between meetings and to bring real-life situations into discussion, though specific session options should be verified prior to scheduling.
