Kelly Conlon, LPC

Kelly Conlon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with eight years of experience in mental health care. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures and wider concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, eating and body-image issues, and coping with life changes. Kelly also supports people facing trauma, grief, addiction, ADHD, parenting stress, and career-related worries.

She trained in Childhood and Family Development at the University of Georgia and earned a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. Early in her career she worked with college students, people with Alzheimer’s and their families, and provided spiritual counseling during graduate training.

After returning to Georgia she practiced across multiple settings. Her experience includes mental health hospitals, residential and outpatient eating disorder programs, outpatient substance use treatment, and private practice. That variety has given her experience with many presenting problems and life stages.

In sessions she uses practical, evidence-based tools drawn from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered work. She focuses on clear strategies people can try between sessions and on building skills for everyday stressors.

Outside the office she spends time cooking, hiking, reading, and with family and pets. She describes herself as someone who blends direct feedback with moments of lightness so people can tackle difficult topics without feeling overwhelmed.
