About Kelli

Kelli Stocker is a licensed therapist who focuses on issues parents and caregivers often face. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship tensions, family concerns, parenting questions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Her work also includes support for caregiver issues and the stress that comes with that role.

Kelli brings about 15 years of hands-on experience to her practice. She uses a warm, client-centered style that prioritizes respect and sensitivity.

Background and approach

Conversations are tailored to each person so practical steps feel relevant and doable. In sessions she often uses solution-focused techniques to identify short-term goals and small changes that make a difference. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, helps people notice and shift thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.

Kelli is licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). Her Florida license is listed as FL LMHC MH8584 and her Arizona license is AZ LPC LPC-23075. She conducts sessions in English and is based in Florida.

Her approach is straightforward and encouraging. Kelli aims to meet clients where they are, then build practical strategies together. The goal is to leave people feeling more capable of handling their daily roles and relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflecting concerns and helping people clarify what they want to change. This approach suits parents and caregivers who need a calm space to talk through pressing issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to notice unhelpful thinking and try new responses, which can ease anxiety and low mood.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, realistic steps toward specific goals. Sessions focus on what’s already working and how to build on it, making progress feel achievable in a shorter time frame.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands and help pick or combine methods that fit. Clients and the therapist collaborate to adjust the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, while phone sessions may suit quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for short updates, notes between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit regular support into family life and caregiving routines.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
