About Kelly
Kelly Gorham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She brings eight years of experience helping people who feel stuck by anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, or trouble finding motivation. Kelly aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, nonjudgmental space to begin talking.
She focuses on straightforward, practical work that helps people notice patterns and try new ways of handling problems. Sessions often cover stress, workplace concerns, relationship communication issues, and questions about life purpose. She also addresses concerns common to veterans and first responders, as well as challenges like isolation, guilt, and forgiveness.
Kelly uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts and actions interact. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change, and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, workable steps. These methods are used together to match each person’s goals and pace.
Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens, asks practical questions, and helps people set achievable goals. Sessions are meant to build confidence and increase day-to-day coping skills.
To begin, people are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

How her approaches work in online therapy
Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions fit together; in online sessions she helps clients try small changes and track results. Motivational Interviewing is used to uncover personal reasons for change and to build motivation one step at a time. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to practical next steps and strengths people already have.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelly treats therapy as a team effort and will discuss which methods make sense based on a person’s goals and preferences. She adjusts the pace and focus collaboratively so someone can try techniques that feel useful.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people maintain continuity of care while managing work, family, or relocation issues. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to a range of everyday situations so therapy becomes a practical part of life. -
