About Joly
Joly Kettles, LPC offers help for parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, anger, coping with life changes, and parenting challenges. She aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming and to help people find practical ways forward.
With 13 years in the mental health field and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, she draws on straightforward strategies that fit everyday life. Sessions focus on clear goals and usable skills rather than long lectures.
Background and approach
Conversations are respectful and down to earth. Her approach centers on the person seeking help while adding practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy. That means identifying unhelpful patterns of thinking and trying small behavior changes to see different results.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas are used to set doable steps and build momentum. Joly works with adults who are dealing with family stress, caregiving strain, compassion fatigue, relationship problems, midlife questions, and the fallout of trauma or loss. She also supports people facing career uncertainty, attachment issues, blended family strain, and control problems.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging so people can pick what fits their days. The tone is collaborative - she helps clients identify strengths and practical next steps for change.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on a person’s own strengths. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to think through parenting stress, grief, or relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple strategies to shift unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors.Choosing an approach is a team process. Joly will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals and daily life. She blends approaches when that helps, and adjusts plans as progress is made so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls can mirror an in-person conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging can support short reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and changing routines.
