About Kelly
Kelly Clyde is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She helps adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and issues around motivation and confidence.
Clients commonly bring worries about grief, intimacy, sleep, parenting pressures, career shifts, and addiction concerns. Kelly also works with people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, forgiveness, and feelings of guilt and shame.
Her approach is straightforward and skills-focused. Sessions include clear, practical steps such as identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying new behaviors, and practicing grounding or mindfulness exercises. She uses methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping.
Kelly aims for honest conversation and steady progress rather than quick fixes. She discusses options, sets small goals together, and checks how techniques feel in everyday life. This includes addressing communication patterns, commitment concerns, and how past experiences shape present choices.
People who come for support leave with concrete skills to use outside sessions. She encourages small experiments between meetings and reviews what worked and what needs adjusting. Her practice is based in New York and sessions are conducted in English.
Approaches used in remote sessions and how they help
Kelly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and guilt. DBT teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which can help with intense feelings and relationship patterns.She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative step. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try techniques together, and adjust the plan based on what fits the client's needs and preferences. Clients are encouraged to give feedback about what helps and what feels difficult.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to practice skills between sessions in everyday settings and bring those experiences back to talk through with the therapist.
