About Kelley
Kelley Turner uses a client-centered approach to guide conversations and problem solving. She is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 20 years of experience. Kelley focuses on clear, practical work in sessions so people can take small steps forward.
She helps people manage stress and anxiety and works on depression and low self-esteem. Kelley also supports those dealing with grief, relationship or intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
How Kelley works
She addresses a wide range of related challenges, such as abandonment, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care questions, and blended family issues. Kelley has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings since gaining licensure in Ohio in 2005. That experience informs how she structures sessions and responds to crises or higher-risk situations.
She tailors her approach when some concerns are not a fit for online work and will discuss options with each person. In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can name difficult thoughts and feelings. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit the person’s needs.
The room is collaborative - goals are chosen together and progress is checked along the way. Kelley believes change starts with small, manageable steps. She supports people as they try new skills between sessions and adjust plans as life changes.
Her style is straightforward, warm, and focused on helping people build more satisfying daily life.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches suited to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns and testing them with concrete behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding emotions and improving emotional connection, which can help with relationship and intimacy-related struggles.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide more flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging suits shorter updates or ongoing skill practice. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and continue work between sessions.
