About Kelly
Kelly Gorham is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She has eight years of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. Kelly takes a direct and compassionate approach so people feel heard from the first session.
She focuses on practical goals and clear steps. Sessions often include short-term strategies to manage difficult feelings and small experiments to build confidence. She also offers coaching-style support for people working on motivation, life purpose, or workplace concerns.
How Kelly works
Kelly often addresses communication problems, commitment worries, and the isolation that can follow major life changes. She works with veterans and first responders on issues related to service and post-traumatic stress. Forgiveness, guilt, and shame are also common topics she helps people name and work through.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means sessions mix practical skill-building with reflective conversation and goal-focused planning. Clients leave with concrete tools to use between sessions.
People who want straightforward, supportive help that moves toward action may find her style a good match. She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs and schedules. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works for you.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce symptoms. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.Motivational Interviewing is used to boost a person’s own reasons for change. It focuses on listening, reflective questions, and building motivation for goals like improving self-care or making life changes.
Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, short-term goals and find immediate steps that make a difference. It’s useful for people who want fast, manageable progress on specific problems like communication or workplace issues.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods over time. Sessions may mix elements from these approaches so work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video allows face-to-face interaction, phone can be lower bandwidth, chat or text suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats offer flexibility for follow-up, skill practice, and steady progress without requiring travel.
