How she works

Sessions are collaborative and paced. Trauma work in particular starts with building capacity — noticing what happens in the body, learning to come back down from activation, and identifying the protective parts that step in when a topic gets close — before any processing begins. Clients set the pace, and stopping is always available.

Kelsey sees individuals, couples and families, and works closely with the LGBTQIA+ community in Las Vegas. Animal-assisted therapy is available: Mowgli, her certified therapy cat, joins sessions when it is helpful.

In Kelsey's own words

TODO (owner): three short first-person sections to be written by Kelsey and pasted in — “My approach to therapy”, “What I want clients to know” and “How I work with couples”. Nothing personal is written on her behalf.

TODO (owner): add a short intro video so prospective clients can hear her voice before reaching out.

Peer endorsement

A colleague's published endorsement — not a client review.

Kelsey is an exceptional supervisor — supportive, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to both client care and clinician growth. I've learned so much from her guidance and feel truly fortunate to work with her.
