About Kent

Kent Kelley brings 24 years of clinical experience to his counseling work and holds LPC and LCPC credentials. He has watched how broad social pressures, economic uncertainty, and public health crises have compounded personal struggles, contributing to increased anxiety, depressive symptoms, relationship strain, and difficulty managing everyday responsibilities.

Background and approach

He emphasizes practical support that is nonjudgmental and focused on helping clients regain a sense of direction and wellbeing. Kent draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to tailor care to each person’s needs, including cognitive and acceptance-based strategies alongside skills-focused approaches.

He works with concerns such as stress, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, grief, career questions, and ADHD, combining therapy and coaching perspectives when appropriate. Clients can expect a collaborative process that centers their goals and preferences while using measurable tools and interventions to build coping skills and clarify next steps.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Kent often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so people can take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. CBT targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to identify which methods best match their goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring, and may blend techniques from different approaches to create a tailored plan.

Online sessions offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. Kent provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate varying schedules and communication styles, making it easier to maintain continuity of care and apply new skills between sessions.
