George Alexander Kelly (April 28, 1905 – March 6, 1967) was an American psychologist, therapist, educator and personality theorist. He is considered a founding figure in the history of clinical psychology and is best known for his theory of personality, personal construct psychology.[1] Kelly's work has influenced many areas of psychology—including constructivist, humanistic, existential, and cognitive psychology.[2][3][4]
