Kelley Turner, LPCC

Kelley Turner has been licensed in Ohio since 2005 and holds the credential LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. With 20 years of clinical experience, she has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, developing a broad background in addressing a range of mental health concerns. Kelley favors a warm, client-centered approach that emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping clients explore their thoughts and feelings in a nonjudgmental space.

She has supported people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, motivation struggles, self-esteem and confidence issues, and depression, among other concerns. Kelley works with clients to set practical goals and build skills that support lasting change, while recognizing that some situations require different levels of care; for that reason, there are certain issues she does not address in online work because of client safety considerations.

Kelley frames therapy as a courageous step toward a more fulfilling life and aims to empower each person she works with. Her practice focuses on creating an open environment where honest conversations can take place, and she partners with clients as they take the first steps toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kelley Turner integrates several evidence-informed approaches to support clients in online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship by offering empathic listening and acceptance, helping clients feel heard and understood while they explore personal goals and challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured techniques, which can be useful for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance strategies with values-based action, teaching skills to live more fully despite difficult thoughts or feelings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work Kelley does with each client. She discusses goals, preferences, and practical needs to determine which methods fit best, and she adapts the plan as progress is made so the therapy remains tailored to the individual.

Online therapy with Kelley is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations, manage appointments around daily responsibilities, and continue care during life transitions.
