About Kelly

Kelly James-Fraser is an LPC based in Georgia with a decade of clinical experience. She draws on varied settings from inpatient care to group practice, bringing practical knowledge of working with severe and chronic mental health concerns as well as clients affected by physical trauma and emotional abuse.

Background and approach

Her background includes roles in inpatient crisis units, forensic settings, and work within corrections where she provided therapy and conducted parole evaluations. Her style blends client-centered principles with solution-focused strategies, and she uses an eclectic mix of therapies to match each person's needs.

Kelly integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques to tailor conversations and treatment plans. This flexible practice is intended to address a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, addictions, parenting and career challenges, and many additional focus areas.

Sessions are offered through multiple remote formats, and therapy plans are developed collaboratively to reflect individual goals and preferences. Kelly aims to create a responsive, goal-oriented process that centers the client's experience while working toward practical change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Kelly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy alongside client-centered principles to support online work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and stress management skills, supporting emotional regulation and resilience in day-to-day situations. Client-Centered Therapy places the client's experience at the core, emphasizing empathy and collaboration to shape goals and treatment.

Determining the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to evaluate needs, preferences, and goals, and then recommend techniques or combinations of approaches that feel most useful. This ongoing tailoring helps ensure the work aligns with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit appointments around other responsibilities, and access therapeutic support from home or another convenient location.
