Kelly Conlon, LPC

Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, eating and body image concerns, grief, and trauma and abuse. She also supports clients dealing with parenting strain, career shifts, addictions, ADHD, and self-esteem challenges. Her approach aims to make hard conversations feel manageable and practical.For people who worry about change or feel stuck, Kelly offers a calm, encouraging presence. She listens first, then helps set small, doable goals. Sessions focus on realistic steps people can use between meetings.

Kelly trained in childhood and family development and completed a master’s in clinical psychology with an emphasis in marriage and family therapy. She has worked in hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder centers, substance use treatment settings, and private practice. Those roles exposed her to many different life situations and challenges.

Her way of working is straightforward and client-centered. She draws from methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and attachment-based ideas. Kelly adapts techniques to each person’s needs rather than following one fixed plan.

Clients can expect respect, compassion, and practical skills to try between sessions. She aims to boost confidence and help people take action toward the life they want. Outside of work she enjoys hiking, cooking, reading, travel, and time with family and pets.

How these approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can help with depression, anxiety, and eating concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kelly will collaborate with each person to find methods that fit their goals and personality. That may mean combining ACT and CBT techniques or using attachment-based ideas to address relationship patterns.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into busy schedules, reduces travel time, and makes it easier to check in during a work break. Online sessions can also allow for a quicker follow-up when applying new skills from therapy to everyday life. Licensed professionals tailor the session pace and tools to what the client needs and can adjust plans as work progresses.
