About Kelly

Kelly Bennett is an LMHC based in Indiana who uses a practical, collaborative approach to help people move past obstacles that interfere with daily life.

Background and approach

She emphasizes cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and narrative methods to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and family challenges, parenting issues, anger, self-esteem, career matters, and ADHD.

Kelly draws on three years of professional experience to support clients navigating mood disorders, obsessive and compulsive patterns, panic attacks, postpartum depression, PTSD, seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety, and a range of women's issues and fertility-related concerns.

Her style blends solution-focused planning with attention to individual stories, helping clients identify unhelpful thinking, clarify values, and build practical skills for coping with life changes. Sessions aim to empower people to meet their needs in healthier ways so they can function better at home, work, and in relationships.

Kelly works in English and offers a respectful, strengths-oriented environment for people ready to map out goals and take steps toward greater well-being.

Approach-Based Online Therapy Options

Kelly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into online work to address patterns that contribute to distress. CBT focuses on identifying and modifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, obsessions, or low mood; it often includes practical skill-building and short-term experiments. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, giving space for clients to explore feelings and values while the therapist supports self-directed growth.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Kelly collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress and feedback guide the work. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions to what matters most to the client.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or other commitments, and they support ongoing skill practice between appointments.
