01About Kelly
Kelly Morana-Piazza is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and listens closely to what each person brings to a session. Her approach centers on practical steps that people can use between meetings.
Kelly earned two master’s degrees, including a Master of Science in Education in clinical mental health counseling. She practiced as a paralegal before shifting careers into counseling in her late twenties, and she has built over a decade of experience since then.
Background and approach
Her background in different workplaces informs how she helps people juggle real-life pressures. In sessions she combines client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try small behavior changes, and practice simple present-moment skills.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques often shape brief goal-setting and plans. She helps people facing relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, career transitions, bipolar challenges, and ADHD-related concerns. Additional interests include body image, codependency, blended family issues, and substance-related problems.
Kelly tries to match practical strategies to the goals each person describes. Kelly practices in Florida as an LPC and as an LMHC. She frames the work as collaborative and respects that people know their own lives best.
Sessions aim to build clear, doable steps so people can test new ways of coping and notice what changes work for them.

How Kelly’s Methods Work Online
Kelly combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practice in straightforward ways. Client-centered work means sessions begin by letting the person say what matters most while the therapist reflects and clarifies. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. Mindfulness techniques teach simple, brief exercises to notice thoughts and bodily signals and to steady attention in stressful moments. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to set goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This way the work stays practical and tailored to each person’s preferences and needs. Online formats offer several practical advantages. Video calls let visual cues guide the conversation and allow longer, full sessions. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, brief coaching moments, or people who prefer writing to speaking. Together these options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into work, care duties, or busy days.05Questions people ask
