I am a licensed professional counselor and mental health service provider (LPC-MHSP) in TN. I have over 5+ years of experience in treating PTSD, specifically combat-related; substance use disorder; borderline personality disorder in men primarily; OCD; and other issues typically found in a mental health setting. I've spent the majority of my career working in a residential alcohol and drug program, which afforded me the opportunity to work with co-morbid disorders/issues that feed into addiction. I have assisted people in confronting personality issues, trauma, and have helped clients learn to balance their intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. I am also actively involved in research in a university setting. I received a Bachelors of Science in Clinical Psychology and a Masters of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from East Tennessee State University. My therapy style is highly conversational and casual with a primary foundation in Existential therapy. I utilize other modalities as needed or as is appropriate to the individual and situation. I have a background in social psychology, which I find beneficial during therapy as the principles are often at the core of many behaviors and attitudes/beliefs. Understanding social psychological theories and how they present within individuals serves to normalize our human experiences by showing that we are not alone. I believe that every individual knows the best way to live their lives, but sometimes may need someone to provide insight, guidance, or serve as a sounding board for thought processes/emotions/fears.
I have a specific interest and a research background in PTSD surrounding combat. Seeking help in general, but especially following a traumatic event, is courageous. The first step is reaching out and I am here to assist you in this experience.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Kelly is reliably insightful and understands my needs very well
Only therapist I've had in 25 years that actually got it. First time ive felt seen. Cannot rave enough about Kelly.
I had never been to a therapist before . she made me feel like it was natural and that i can tell her anything. Also knowing she is here to help me figure out how i need to guide myself in the direction i am looking for in my life.
Great listener you truly feel she wants to help and provides tools to help with issues. We need more Kelly’s in this world.
Absolutely the best!!
Kelly is awesome! She stays in touch in between sessions if I have any pressing concerns. You can tell she is listening and not just hearing your words, which makes the time spent really valuable and more rewarding as it relates to every day life, accomplishing both long and short-term goals.
Kelly is phenomenal. I had gone through too many therapist and gave up on therapy for a long time. However, after working with Kelly I reccomend therapy to everyone. I am so thankful for her and to have found a therapist that puts her all in her work. She is the absolute best.
Great therapist
Kelly is such a caring and wonderful therapist. She sees things I can’t or won’t and helps me to accept them in my own time. Could not have asked for a better therapist.
Easy to use
Kelly is a phenomenal therapist who takes time to get to know her clients and provides tailor made therapy to each individual.
Extremely pleased so far
Kelly is kind, a good listener, and very helpful.
Kelly Sheets has been a life changing therapist. Genuinely, I have felt fully heard, supported, and understood in our sessions. I find it very easy to rely on her expertise and her advice is quite often applicable to my situation. Kelly listens better than any therapist I have had before, which has been very healing. Nothing but good things to say
I have attempted therapy in the past and felt discouraged due to previous therapist. However, I attempted therapy once more and was assigned Kelly Sheets. She is phenomenal and has changed my perspective on therapy. I would highly recommend Therapist Sheets and Betterhelp to everyone.
Totally available, understanding, and non-judgemental. She actually listens and pays attention, often linking new things to old things we have discussed. She’s insightful, clearly knows her stuff, and is just all-around the best person to have in your corner
Kelly is respectful and perfectional, but she talks to me at her level. I feel comfortable talking to her and I feel confident in her insight and support while also enjoying conversation as though talking to a friend. She is very encouraging and is always pointing out and congratulating me when I make observations about myself and mental health and reminds me that just making an effort to note and understand myself is very good. She is very affirming and validating to my worries and struggles. I'm glad I was matched with her she's been very helpful and I always look forward to our meetings.
Kelly is a phenomenal therapist. She’s so in tune with me and can tell when we’re reaching my limit with a subject and need to move on. She’s very intuitive and helpful. I just love the way she approaches things!
kelly makes me feel heard and understood. i feel like i'm in a safe space to talk about what i'm feeling without being judged and i receive extremely helpful feedback.
So far I’ve only had one session with Kelly, but it was really clear from our interaction that she has a lot of respect for her clients. She is mindful about everything she says and she made me feel very comfortable and safe.
