About Kelly

Kelly Haught is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) working in Tennessee. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and sleep problems. Kelly aims to be a steady presence while clients work toward practical changes that matter in day-to-day life.

Kelly brings 24 years of experience to sessions and uses straightforward methods to reduce negative thinking and improve coping. She centers conversations on each person's experience and priorities. That means listening first, then offering tools that fit the client’s needs.

Her approach combines client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practice. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns, building new coping skills, and practicing small behavior changes. Kelly emphasizes clear, doable steps rather than long lectures.

People also turn to her for help with relationship stress, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, eating concerns, substance issues, and career transitions. She pays attention to overlapping issues like co-morbidity and caregiver stress so clients get strategies that address the whole picture.

Kelly describes therapy as a partnership. She supports people as they try out new ways of responding to stress and redirecting old habits. The goal is better daily functioning, more calm around sleep and rest, and increased confidence in handling life’s changes.

How Kelly Uses Practical Approaches Online

Kelly commonly blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. Client-centered care means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead, helping people name what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking to change feelings and actions. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce rumination and improve sleep patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelly will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts tools over time and checks in to see what is helpful and what needs changing.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow brief check-ins when a longer visit is hard to schedule. Talk with Kelly about what practical session structure would fit your routine, and she will help plan sessions that match your daily responsibilities and goals.
