About Kelly

Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with eight years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, eating and body image issues, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addiction, grief, and family of origin issues.

Kelly uses straightforward, practical sessions that focus on what is happening now and how family patterns from childhood may still influence daily life. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based work to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding.

Her background includes an undergraduate degree in Childhood and Family Development from the University of Georgia and a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. She has worked in hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder centers, substance abuse treatment settings, and private practice.

Sessions involve talking through current struggles, identifying repeating roles and expectations learned in the family, and practicing concrete skills for managing emotions, relationships, and eating-related challenges. Kelly also incorporates work on communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, and attachment concerns when those topics are relevant.

Outside of clinical work she enjoys hiking, cooking, reading, and time with family and pets. She offers therapy in English and does not take international clients. Prospective clients should confirm session formats before booking.

Approaches used in online sessions

Kelly commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based work in her sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying values, noticing unhelpful thoughts, and committing to small behaviors that align with what matters most; it can help with anxiety, stress, and motivation. Attachment-Based work looks at early relationship patterns and how they show up in adult connections, which is useful for communication, intimacy, and family of origin concerns.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns and practice behavior changes for mood and eating-related issues. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan based on what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on hectic days. Online work can also make it easier to practice skills between sessions and bring real-world situations into the conversation.
