About Kent

Kent Kelley is a licensed professional counselor who brings 24 years of experience to his work. He is credentialed as an LPC and LCPC and is based in Colorado. Kent focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions in a straightforward, practical way.

He notices how social strain and recent world events can make everyday problems feel much harder. Kent offers calm, nonjudgmental support aimed at helping people regain steadiness when routines break down. Sessions often look at immediate coping skills and clearer next steps instead of only talking about symptoms.

Kent uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. He also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to build trust and a stronger sense of self.

People come for help with parenting stress, relationship concerns, substance use, grief, career strain, and attention difficulties among other issues. Kent frames work as coaching and therapy when that fits, helping people clarify goals and practice new habits.

Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and the practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, then choose behaviors that match what matters most. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck when life feels overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought that increase distress and practicing different ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is often used for mood concerns, anxiety, and building practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and what shows up in early sessions. That process may mix ideas from different approaches until a useful plan emerges.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Many people find online options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, handle brief check-ins, or continue care when relocation or travel makes in-person meetings difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT techniques to work well over distance, focusing on skill practice, values-based actions, and structured exercises that transfer into daily life.
