About Kelly
Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Georgia. She brings eight years of experience working in mental health and offers a calm, respectful space for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, eating and body-image concerns, and life transitions. Kelly keeps things straightforward in sessions.
She listens closely, helps people tell their stories differently, and works with them to set small, realistic steps toward change. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental and she uses humor when it fits.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder centers, substance abuse treatment settings, and independent practice. She has supported people through grief, trauma, addiction, and challenges tied to identity and family dynamics. That variety shaped her practical, person-focused style.
Kelly draws on Narrative ideas alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-informed work, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques. She chooses what is most useful for each person rather than sticking to one script. Sessions focus on what a person values and on actions that move them toward those values.
People who come to Kelly often want help with communication problems, codependency, parenting strain, career stress, fertility or adoption-related concerns, and issues like ADHD or bipolar mood struggles. She partners with clients to make sense of difficult patterns and to build clearer ways of moving forward. Outside of work she enjoys hiking, cooking, reading, travel, and time with family and her pets.
Her style aims to be collaborative, practical, and compassionate.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

Online session options
How therapeutic approaches work online
Kelly blends Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and attachment-informed work to help people who use online sessions. Narrative Therapy focuses on separating someone from their problems and retelling life stories in ways that allow new choices and clearer values. It can help with identity issues, body image, and patterns that feel stuck.ACT encourages noticing thoughts and making value-driven choices even when feelings are difficult. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections, which can help with intimacy problems, communication struggles, and parenting concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and Kelly treats it as a collaboration. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as needed so therapy matches what actually helps.
Online work offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let people connect face to face when schedules or travel make in-person sessions hard. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone needs a quick way to process between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and life obligations.
