Getting to know Deborah Kelly

With more than 17 years of experience, I help Florida adults understand painful emotional and relationship patterns, manage anxiety and trauma, and develop practical tools for lasting change. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with Empower Psychotherapy and earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Tennessee. I support adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can gain insight, build healthier coping skills, and work toward meaningful change. I offer telehealth appointments with limited evening availability.

What should a new client know about working with you?

When you work with me, you will find a therapy space that is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded. My style as a telehealth therapist near me for Florida residents is centered on creating a nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. In our online therapy sessions, I focus on trauma-aware and relational frameworks, ensuring that our telehealth for behavioral health work honors your unique life context and strengths. I believe that therapy online is most effective when you feel truly understood and supported, and I work alongside you to help you gain the insight and coping skills needed for sustainable change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process begins with building a secure therapeutic partnership where your goals and needs lead the way. During our telehealth psychotherapy sessions, I tailor my treatment by integrating evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. A typical session of telehealth counseling involves identifying patterns rooted in past experiences and developing practical tools for emotional regulation. Whether we are utilizing telehealth therapy services for anxiety disorders or mood-related concerns, my mission is to provide telehealth counseling services that help you move toward a more meaningful and empowered life.
