About Kelly

Kelly Schettini is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia who draws on 16 years of clinical experience to help clients move forward.

Background and approach

She centers work in cognitive behavioral therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed techniques, guiding people to recognize strengths and try practical strategies that reduce anxiety, manage stress, and improve mood. Her training in clinical mental health and school counseling informs a flexible approach that blends structured skill-building with empathetic listening.

Schettini frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors each person’s insight while offering targeted support for concerns such as relationships, grief, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, career transitions, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include adoption and foster care, domestic violence, fertility concerns, life purpose, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, and women’s issues.

She offers sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and aims to create a genuine, nonjudgmental space where clients can be honest and work toward meaningful goals.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Kelly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered techniques to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and patterns, offering concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Client-centered work emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore values, relationships, and life purpose at their own pace.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to clarify goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on what fits best with each person’s needs and preferences. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions for issues such as grief, self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, career transitions, and social anxiety.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or elsewhere. Licensed professionals aim to combine practical therapeutic techniques with formats that suit each client’s routine and comfort.
