About Kelly

Kelly Bujnicki is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family conflicts, and parenting challenges. She approaches sessions with a calm, straightforward manner and treats each person with respect. Kelly believes people bring strengths that matter and uses those strengths to move toward practical change.

In sessions she listens closely and helps clients name what feels hardest. She focuses on real problems and concrete steps clients can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Conversations are practical and paced to each person’s needs, not rushed or filled with jargon. Kelly draws on client-centered therapy to make room for each person’s perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

These methods are applied to stress, self-esteem, workplace struggles, and social anxiety among other concerns. Her background includes a long clinical career in Florida and work across common life stressors like caregiver strain, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. Kelly emphasizes collaboration so clients set the pace and goals for therapy.

Parents and families looking for steady, experience-based support will find a practical focus in her work. She aims to empower people to try small, doable changes that add up over time.

Approaches and online options for family and parenting support

Kelly uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful space where the client’s story guides the work. This approach focuses on listening, understanding each person’s perspective, and building on their strengths to set goals and make changes.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT, which helps people notice patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT breaks big concerns into specific steps and offers practical tools to reduce anxiety, improve self-esteem, and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kelly works collaboratively to decide what methods fit a person’s needs and goals, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients are invited to offer feedback and shape the pace of work.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and caregivers. Video calls let people talk face-to-face from home, while phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging provide simpler ways to stay connected between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a schedule and to practice new skills in everyday life.

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.
