About Joly

Joly Kettles, LPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, anger, and the strain of life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, caregiver stress, codependency, and work-related compassion fatigue. Her tone is warm and inviting for someone taking a first step toward support.

Joly approaches work in a straightforward, person-centered way. She listens first and helps people name what matters most to them. Then she pairs that listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps that fit into everyday life.

In sessions, she emphasizes collaboration. Clients set goals and Joly helps track progress and adjust plans when needed. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can draw on their own strengths and try new coping strategies.

Her background includes 13 years in the mental health field and practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Joly has worked with adolescents, adults, and couples on issues like anxiety, depression, domestic violence, trauma, and grief. That experience informs a balanced mix of support, skill building, and goal-focused work.

People who want clear, practical steps and a respectful, listening approach may find her style helpful. If you prefer a collaborative therapist who mixes empathy with actionable tools, she may be a good match.

How Joly’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building a respectful, accepting relationship. It helps people feel heard and become clearer about what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete techniques to shift unhelpful patterns; it can be useful for anxiety, anger, and low mood.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. Joly will listen to your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your situation. She adjusts the plan as you make progress so the work stays relevant and useful.

If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking. Many people find that remote work makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allows shorter check-ins when needed, and reduces travel time. Talk with Joly about what schedule and session rhythm best fit your life, and she will help tailor the process to your goals.
