About Kelly

LPC Kelly Franklin has 10 years of professional experience and practices in Missouri. She focuses on stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, self-esteem, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English. She does not accept international clients.

Kelly helps people talk through everyday pressures and difficult emotions. She works with parents facing parenting strain and with individuals navigating family conflict. She also addresses low confidence, motivation, and attention-related challenges.

Her approach is practical and straightforward. She encourages open conversation about thoughts and feelings and helps clients identify small, workable changes. Sessions often focus on improving communication, managing panic or social anxiety symptoms, and finding clearer goals during midlife or life transitions.

Kelly has a background that includes work with caregiver stress, attachment concerns, and workplace issues. She has supported people coping with trauma reactions, panic attacks, pregnancy and childbirth–related concerns, and problems with impulsivity or control.

People can expect a therapist who listens and helps set clear steps to try between sessions. She outlines options, talks about what might fit best, and adjusts plans based on progress. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the site.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Kelly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and steps. One approach involves teaching practical strategies to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, such as breathing and grounding exercises alongside planning for triggers. Another approach helps improve communication and attachment-related patterns by identifying interaction cycles and practicing different ways to respond to conflict. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose which methods to try based on their goals, the problems they bring, and what feels workable. Plans are adjusted over time if something isn’t helping. The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to keep regular appointments and to bring real-life situations into discussion during the work together.
