About Kelly
Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 8 years of experience in mental health. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, trauma and abuse, eating and body image concerns, anger, addiction, and parenting challenges. Kelly also addresses issues such as self-esteem, career concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.
Kelly trained in Childhood and Family Development at the University of Georgia and completed a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy at Pepperdine University. Early in her career she worked with college students, people with Alzheimer’s and their families, and provided spiritual counseling while in graduate school.
After returning to Georgia she practiced across several settings. Those include mental health hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder programs, outpatient substance abuse centers, and private practice. That range gave experience with many presenting problems and different stages of care.
Her approach blends several methods to match what each person needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based techniques, and a client-centered stance. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer communication, and changing patterns that cause repeated frustration or conflict.
Kelly keeps sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, build better coping skills, and practice different ways of responding to anger and stress. Outside work she enjoys hiking, cooking, travel, reading, and time with family and pets.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Kelly commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing concrete skills to change them, which can help with anger, anxiety, and perfectionism. ACT teaches noticing thoughts and committing to values-based action, which is useful when frustration or avoidance get in the way of daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelly collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than following one fixed method.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or remove the need to travel. Talk with the therapist about practical details so sessions can be arranged in a way that fits everyday life.
