About Kellie
Kellie Kiernan is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 15 years of experience. She works with adults and focuses on practical steps to reduce stress and manage strong emotions. Her style is direct and structured, aimed at helping people make changes that fit daily life.
Kellie uses Jungian ideas alongside cognitive and behavioral tools to help people understand patterns that repeat in their relationships and inner life. She also draws on acceptance and commitment strategies and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when helpful.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize clearer communication, boundaries, and emotion regulation skills. Common concerns Kellie addresses include anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, anger, and coping with life changes. She also helps with issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, control and commitment problems, isolation, guilt, and relationship communication problems.
Kellie does not offer services for certain diagnoses or problem areas that sit outside her scope of practice. Therapy is offered to adults who live in Ohio through appointment-based messaging. Kellie typically responds to messages sent outside scheduled sessions within 24 to 48 hours.
Her hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. Initial work begins with a consultation where the concerns that brought someone to therapy are reviewed. From that first meeting, Kellie and the person decide whether her approach and experience match the needs presented.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online messaging therapy
Jungian Therapy looks at recurring images, themes, and personal stories to help people see patterns that influence feelings and relationships. It can be useful when someone wants deeper self-understanding and meaning in their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through small experiments and practical exercises, which helps with anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, encourages noticing difficult feelings while taking actions that match personal values, and it can help people move forward despite fear or uncertainty.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences during the initial consultation and then try methods that fit the person's needs. That collaboration helps shape whether more Jungian reflection, CBT exercises, or ACT strategies are emphasized.
Online messaging sessions make therapy flexible and easier to fit into a busy day. Video calls are not offered; instead Kellie uses scheduled live chat and text-based messaging so people can write in from a quiet spot, check in during a break, or follow up in writing after a session. Phone sessions are not provided. This format supports steady communication, written reflections, and quick skill practice between focused appointments.
