About Kelly
Kelly Muratorri is a licensed counselor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, trauma, and anger. She practices from Iowa and brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions. Kelly uses clear, practical tools so clients can take steps forward between meetings.
She focuses on common concerns like depression, low self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes. Parenting is one of the areas she addresses, helping parents manage stress and the emotional demands of caregiving.
Background and approach
Kelly also works with people affected by compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges. Her background includes work with military veterans, first responders, and people on the autism spectrum. That experience informs how she plans treatment and sets realistic goals.
Kelly draws on several therapy approaches to match each person's needs rather than using a single method for everyone. In sessions she mixes practical skill-building with attention to emotions and past events that continue to cause distress. Expect straightforward strategies for managing symptoms and time to talk through deeper patterns that affect day-to-day life.
Kelly describes herself as collaborative and goal-oriented when planning the work. Kelly holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential. Those are listed as LPC and LMHC.
She offers services in English and accepts international clients who can connect from outside the United States.

How evidence-based therapies work online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It gives concrete tools for anxiety, stress, and depression that clients can practice between sessions.EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, helps people process traumatic memories by using guided bilateral stimulation while recalling distressing events. It is often used for post-traumatic stress and deep-seated trauma that continues to affect daily life.
Kelly will help figure out which approach or combination fits best. Finding the right method is part of the work together. She reviews goals, preferences, and past treatment to shape a plan that feels doable and clear.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people keep face-to-face interaction without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick strategy reminders, and ongoing support between scheduled meetings.
These formats give flexibility for different rhythms of work and life while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional processing.
