About Kelly
Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She focuses on parenting concerns as well as stress, anxiety, relationship conflicts, eating and body-image worries, and life transitions. Kelly aims to make therapy feel approachable and practical for people juggling busy lives.
She draws on eight years of experience in mental health settings. That experience includes work in hospitals, residential and outpatient eating-disorder programs, substance abuse treatment centers, and independent practice.
Background and approach
Her background also includes college student work and counseling families affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Kelly uses a mix of approaches to meet each person's needs. She leans on client-centered care and evidence-based tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy.
She adjusts methods to the issues people bring, whether it is grief, addiction, depression, or parenting strain. Her style is warm and non-judgmental. She emphasizes respect and compassion while offering practical steps clients can use between sessions.
She aims to help people build confidence and healthier habits, and she sometimes uses gentle humor to ease difficult conversations. Outside of work she enjoys hiking, cooking, travel, reading, and time with family and her pets. These interests inform a down-to-earth style that many find relatable during stressful seasons of life.

Approaches you can use in online sessions
Kelly uses acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based techniques to guide online work. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people change patterns in closeness, trust, and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelly will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match goals and daily life. She combines client-centered listening with practical skill-building, and will adjust the methods used as needs evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Chat or text-based messaging can be a shorter check-in or a way to track progress between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting and work schedules while keeping consistent momentum toward goals.
