About Kelly

Kelly Fitzgerald is a Licensed Professional Counselor with twenty years of experience helping people who feel stuck. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, addictions, grief, and career or life purpose concerns. Her plain, steady approach is aimed at practical progress.

She works with people on relationship and family issues and on rebuilding self-esteem. Kelly uses a client-centered style that keeps the person’s goals in focus. She blends mindfulness practices such as meditation and relaxation with conversational, goal-focused work.

Background and approach

Sessions often include simple exercises, journaling prompts, and movement ideas to try between meetings. She draws on a range of tools rather than a single method. That can include elements from cognitive approaches, 12-step support, energy-based practices, and positive psychology ideas when they fit a person’s needs.

Kelly frames these options in everyday language and helps people choose what feels useful. Kelly emphasizes collaboration - the client and therapist shape the plan together. She pays attention to the whole person, including physical and spiritual concerns when relevant.

Progress is checked in small steps so adjustments can be made. Based in Illinois, Kelly holds a Missouri Licensed Professional Counselor credential and an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential. She offers practical guidance and coping strategies for life changes and trauma recovery.

Many people find her steady, nonjudgmental style helpful when making changes.

Approaches Kelly names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Client-centered and mindfulness approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the person set their own goals. This approach suits people who want a supportive, collaborative space to figure things out.

Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus. Short meditation and relaxation techniques can help with stress, anxiety, cravings, and managing mood swings. These tools are paired with everyday strategies to use between sessions.

Kelly will work with each person to find the best mix of methods. That means deciding together whether mindfulness exercises, conversational coaching, journaling, or movement practices fit current goals. The plan can change as needs change, with regular check-ins to see what helps most.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are convenient for ongoing support, brief reflections, and quick adjustments between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
