Meet Our Therapists

Kelly Phillips, LAPC

Hi, I’m Kelly Phillips. Life can place a lot on our plates, and sometimes we need a safe, supportive space to pause, reflect, and work through what we’re carrying. I believe therapy is more than simply addressing problems. It can be an opportunity to gain insight, develop healthier coping skills, strengthen relationships, and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

As a therapist with Peaceful Horizons Counseling, LLC, I provide compassionate telehealth counseling throughout Georgia for children, teens, adults, couples, and families. My goal is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where you can feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward your goals.

I work with clients experiencing a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, communication difficulties, trauma, emotional regulation, family concerns, and major life transitions. I also support individuals who may feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about what comes next.

Areas I Support

My clinical work includes supporting clients with:

• Anxiety, anxiety disorders, and stress

• Depression and mood-related concerns

• Relationship, dating, and marital concerns

• Couples counseling and communication challenges

• Family conflict and relationship dynamics

• Trauma and difficult life experiences

• Emotional regulation and coping skills

• Life transitions and significant changes

• Personal growth and self-discovery

My Approach to Therapy

My primary therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while incorporating Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Person-Centered Therapy. I believe every client is different, so I tailor treatment to your individual experiences, needs, strengths, values, and goals.

For couples and families, I also have training in the Gottman Method and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). These approaches can help couples and families improve communication, better understand emotional needs, manage conflict, rebuild connection, and develop healthier relationship patterns.

I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is an important part of the healing process. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and focused on helping you develop practical tools that you can use both inside and outside of therapy.

A Safe Space to Grow

Whether you are managing anxiety, navigating depression, working through relationship difficulties, adjusting to a major life change, processing past experiences, or simply trying to better understand yourself, you do not have to navigate it alone.

You do not need to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. We can start with where you are and work together toward where you want to be. My goal is to help you gain greater clarity, build confidence, strengthen your relationships, develop healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful and lasting change.

I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Townsend Institute at Concordia University Irvine and currently practice under the supervision of Christine Clark, LPC, CPCS.

At Peaceful Horizons Counseling, LLC, I am committed to providing accessible and compassionate online therapy in Georgia and Tennessee that meets you where you are. Whether you are seeking individual counseling, teen therapy, child counseling, couples counseling, or family therapy, I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward greater emotional wellness, healthier relationships, and your own peaceful horizon.
