About Kelley
Kelley Turner is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 20 years of experience. She has provided care in both inpatient and outpatient settings since 2005. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, anger, and self-esteem concerns.
She uses a client-centered style that focuses on what each person brings to the room. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Kelley listens first, then works with the client to set clear goals and steps to try between meetings.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as tools to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used when relationship feelings need attention. She also uses mindfulness-based ideas to reduce reactivity and increase tolerance for difficult emotions.
Kelley has experience addressing life transitions, grief, career stress, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues linked to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family stresses, and caregiving burdens. Some concerns are handled differently in person and online for safety reasons.
In sessions she emphasizes clear communication skills, boundary setting, and practical coping strategies. Expect a collaborative tone and concrete tools you can use between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first meeting.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Kelley commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions even when emotions are uncomfortable. ACT can help with anger that comes from avoidance or buildup of tension. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she uses to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that feed stress and reactivity.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-style skills are practical and can be practiced between sessions to reduce snapping at others or escalating arguments. Kelley blends these methods with client-centered listening to keep sessions focused on the client's immediate goals.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelley will help clients figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as work progresses. You and the therapist decide together which strategies make the most sense for day-to-day life.
