About Kelly
Kelly Muratorri is a licensed professional counselor and licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage strong emotions and stressful life events. She offers direct, practical support for problems like stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and depression. Kelly draws on approaches that focus on emotions and on changing unhelpful thoughts and reactions.
She has seven years of clinical experience working with people affected by trauma and abuse, and she provides focused care for those coping with first responder and veteran experiences.
Background and approach
Her background also includes supporting people on the autism spectrum and anyone dealing with chronic illness or chronic pain. In sessions she uses methods aimed at processing traumatic memories and reshaping patterns that keep problems going. That means calming intense reactions, reducing overwhelm, and practicing new ways to cope when old strategies stop working.
She also incorporates emotion-centered work to improve how people understand and express their feelings. Kelly can offer a faith-informed perspective when that fits a person’s values and goals. She strives to meet each person where they are and to build practical tools for daily life.
Her approach emphasizes collaboration, clear skills practice, and steady progress. Clients meet with Kelly for focused work on issues such as relationship strain, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, attachment concerns, and post-traumatic stress. She works with each person to set concrete goals and track changes over time.

How Kelly’s Approaches Work Online
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing new responses. It can help with anxiety, anger management, low mood, and the everyday patterns that make life harder.EFT, emotionally-focused therapy, helps people notice and name their emotions and change how they respond in stressful moments. This approach is useful for managing intense feelings, improving emotional regulation, and strengthening how someone copes with relational stress.
EMDR, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is used to address traumatic memories by guiding the brain to process painful events differently. It is often helpful for people dealing with post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelly will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaborative process can include trying techniques and adjusting them over time.
Online sessions make these approaches easier to access. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, journaling prompts, or shorter coaching-style contacts. These formats provide flexibility so therapy can fit into busy schedules and different lifestyles.
