Kathleen “Kathy” Kelly is a licensed clinical social worker in Connecticut with 38 years of experience working in community behavioral health and educational settings. She has supported individuals and groups through traumatic life events and assisted people managing depression and anxiety, building self-esteem, and navigating family conflicts as well as caregiver and parenting concerns.
Her counseling style is compassionate, non-judgmental and nurturing, and she tailors her approach to meet each person’s needs and preferences. She collaborates with clients to develop clear goals for counseling and draws on cognitive-behavioral principles, mindfulness strategies, and stress management techniques to address their concerns.
She recognizes that everyone encounters challenging times when professional guidance can be beneficial, and she honors the courage it takes to seek help. She aims to support clients with kindness and respect and looks forward to working with them.
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the key advantages is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that feels most comfortable, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This convenience often makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit.
