Kelly has been great with helping me process my divorce and the grief that comes with that. I have been thankful for how she listens as well as her advice and counsel. She has helped me with processing this season with my children and encouraging me as a mom. Her weekly sessions have been imperative to my healing this year.

I am so thankful for Kelly! She is a great balance of listener and responder. It feels like a conversation with her, and she gently brings to light the areas that need to be revealed. I am very thankful for her!

More about Kelly

  • LCMHC

Welcome! My name is Kelly, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Licensed School Counselor in the state of North Carolina. I have provided counseling services in the mental health, substance abuse, and school setting since 2004, working with young children, teens, and adults.

My counseling approach is unique to each client. I work with my clients to identify and set goals that they are inspired to work on. Everyone has strengths and struggles and I incorporate both into helping clients throughout the therapeutic process. Therapy is a place for you to come as you are. It is important to me that you feel heard, validated, and have a safe space to process your experiences. Reaching out for help can be difficult and often scary, especially when you don't know what to expect. Congratulations on making the first difficult step toward your goals. I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

In just 2 sessions, Kelly has already opened my mind to thought processes I didn’t even realize I was having. She is kind and understanding, while still being firm in the areas where I need it.
