Kelly Gorham

Kelly Gorham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, and coaching for people who feel stuck or uncertain about what comes next.

Kelly helps people name and work through feelings that get in the way of daily life. She addresses issues such as commitment doubts, communication problems, emptiness, and workplace strain. She also supports those dealing with first responder and veteran-related concerns, trauma and post-traumatic stress, and the effects of guilt, shame, or isolation.

Her approach uses practical, goal-oriented methods. Kelly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She uses Motivational Interviewing to clarify what matters most and Solution-Focused techniques to build concrete next steps.

Sessions tend to be direct and focused on what a person wants to change. Conversations include exploring values, testing small changes, and tracking what helps. She offers coaching-style support alongside therapeutic work when clients want a blend of both.

People who come to Kelly often want clearer priorities after a life change, less anxiety about work, or help with grief and loss. She asks practical questions, listens for patterns, and helps people try small experiments that may shift day-to-day functioning.

Approaches used online and what they do

Kelly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors; this often suits anxiety, low mood, and workplace stress. Motivational Interviewing is used to clarify personal values and strengthen commitment to change when someone feels unsure about next steps. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses conversations on small, practical goals and what can be tried between sessions to move forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your concerns, preferences, and goals and then recommend methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as you learn what helps.

The original biography did not list specific session formats. Please confirm which session options are offered before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people try focused coaching-style sessions alongside therapeutic work while keeping meetings convenient for everyday life.
